If You Go (Ne Me Quitte Pas) Lyrics

Don’t leave me
We must forget
Everything can be forgotten
Which is already past
Forget the times
Of misunderstandings
And the lost time
To know how
To forget those moments
Which sometimes killed
- with constant ‘whys’ –
The heart of happiness
Don’t leave me
Don’t leave me
Don’t leave me
Don’t leave me

I will give you
Pearls of rain
Which have come from countries
Where it doesn’t rain
I will keep digging the earth
Until after my death
To cover your body
With gold and light
I will make a domain
Where love will be king
Where love will be law
Where love will be queen
Don’t leave me
Don’t leave me
Don’t leave me
Don’t leave me

Don’t leave me
I will invent for you
Crazy words
That you will understand
I will talk to you
Of those lovers
Who have twice seen
Their hearts set ablaze
I will tell you The story of the king
Dead from not having
Been able to meet you
Don’t leave me
Don’t leave me
Don’t leave me
Don’t leave me

We have often seen
Spurt forth
The fire of an ancient volcano
That one thought too old
It appears that
Burnt earth
Gives more wheat
Than the best April
And when the evening comes
So that the sky blazes
Red and black
Don’t they become one?
Don’t leave me
Don’t leave me
Don’t leave me
Don’t leave me

Don’t leave me
I’m not going to cry any more
I’m not going to talk any more
I will hide there
Watching you
Dance and smile
Listening to you
Sing and then laugh
Let me become
The shadow of your shadow
The shadow of your hand
The dog at your command
Don’t leave me
Don’t leave me
Don’t leave me
Don’t leave me
