If You Go Away / Love Story

(album: Freedom Means... - 1971)

But if you stay
I'll make your day
Like no day has been
Or will be again
We'll ride on the rain
We'll sail on your touch
I'll talk to your eyes
That I love so much
And if You go
Go, I won't cry
For the good is gone
From the word, goodbye
If you go away
Ne me quite pas
If you go, but please don't go

If you go away as I know you must
There'll be nothing left in the world to trust
Just an empty room full of empty space
Like the empty look I see on your face
I have been the shadow of your dark
If that might've kept me by your side
If you go away, please don't go away
Don't go away

Where do I begin
To tell the story of how great a love can be
The sweet love story that is older than the sea
The simple truth about the love she brings to me
Where do I start

With her first hello
She gave new meaning to this empty world of mine
There'd never be another love, another time
She came into my life and made the living fine
She fills my heart

She fills my heart with very special things
With angels' songs, with wild imaginings
She fills my soul with so much love
That anywhere I go I'm never lonely
With her around, who could be lonely
I reach for her hand, it's always there

How long does it last (I'll make you a day)
Can love be measured by the hours in a day
(Like no day has been or will be again)
I have no answers now (We'll ride on the rain)
But this much I can say (We'll sail on your touch)
I know I'll need her 'till the stars all burn away
(That I love so much)
And she'll be there (That I love so much)
