if ever i would leave you
Singer: jones, tom
if ever i should leave you
it wouldn't be in summer
seeing you in summer
i never would go
your hair streaked with sunlight
your lips red as flame
your face with a luster that puts gold to shame
but if i'd ever leave you
it couldn't be in autumn
how i'd leave in autumn
i never will know
i've seen how you sparkle when fall nips the air
i know you in autumn and i must be there
and could i leave you running merrily through the snow
or on a wintry evening when you catch the fire's glow
if ever i would leave you
how could it be in springtime
knowing how in spring i'm bewitched by you so
oh
no
not in springtime
summer
winter
or fall
no never could i leave you at all
