Joaquin Phoenix - If You Go Away Lyrics

Hi, it's me, Arthur
And they let me call you to see if you come back
'Cause I, I, I want you here
And I don't want you to go

If you go away on this sunny day
Then you might as well take the sun away
All the birds that flew in the bright blue sky
When our love was new and our hearts were high
And the day was young and the night was long
And the moon stood still for the night bird's song
If you go away

But if you stay, I'll make you a 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
All the good is gone from the word goodbye

If you go away, ne me quitte pas
If you go away

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'd have been the shadow of your dark
I thought it might have kept me by your side
If you go away
