Patricia Kaas - If You Go Away

If you go away On this summer day
Then you might as well Take the sun away
All the birds that flew In the summer sky
When our love was new And our hearts were high
When the day was young And the night was long
And the moon stood still For
the night bird's song

If you go away
If you go away
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 sail the sun We'll ride on the rain
We'll talk to the trees We'll worship the wind
And if you go I'll understand
Leave me just enough love To hold in my hand

If you go away
If you go away
If you go away

If you go away
As I'm the real 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've been the shadow
Of your shadow I fell you might
have kept me By your side

If you go away
If you go away
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 sail the sun We'll ride on the rain
We'll talk to the trees We'll worship the wind
And if you go I'll understand,
Leave me just enough love To hold in my hand

If you go away
If you go away
Ne me quite pas

PATRICIA KASS has done an OUTSTANDING job on this song and that should be the subject of comments here, not the feelings of forlorn lovers---please comment on the SONG AND THE SINGER.

[nycgirl4]

I am sorry, but there are no rules who should write what on this video :) so go ahead guys, write whatever you want to. However be nice to each other.

[cristipD]

aaaa....this is the lyric in english of Et s'il fallait le faire ??????...haa.??

[nycgirl4]

no, this is lyrics from "Ne Me Quitte Pas"

I had often felt that women singing this song were unconvincing; the image and voice of Brel were too hard to forget.

Kaas renders a different song, where the fire and desperation of Brel are replaced with a deep melancholy and acceptation; but with an hypnotic touch that ends up touching us as deeply as the original.

The montage of nycgirl4 is splendid: like that eye at 0:54, that symbol in the sky at 1:01, that defeated body at 3:20.. just glorious

You can never please YouTube users.how you manage to dislike a perfect music is still a misery to me

[emilyandthedevil]

people can say whatever they like 'skhaynes'... it's really not don't down to you to start qualifying responses.

@skhaynes

That's like saying that the commentary to Romeo and Juliet should be about William and not the story itself... Gonna say that is completely wrong.

Any comment can, should, and will be made.
