"Ne Me Quitte Pas (Don't Leave Me)" lyrics

"Ne Me Quitte Pas (Don't Leave Me)"
(originally by Jacques Brel)

Ne me quitte pas
Il faut oublier tout peut s'oublier
Qui s'enfuit déjà
Oublier le temps des malentendus
Le temps perdu à savoir comment
Oublier ces heures qui tuaient parfois
A coups de pourquoi
Le cœur du bonheur

Ne me quitte pas, ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas, ne me quitte pas

But if you stay
I'll make you a day like no day has been
Or will be again
We'll sail on the sun, we'll ride it through the rain
We'll talk to the trees
And 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
If you go away like I know you will
You must have the world stop turning 'til you return to me
If you ever do, what good is love
Without loving you?
I can tell you now as you turn to go
I'll be dying soon
'Til the next hello

Ne me quitte pas, ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas, ne me quitte pas

But if you stay
I'll make you a night like no night has been
Or will be again
We'll sail on your smile, I'll ride on your touch
And talk to your eyes that I love so much
Then 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
If you go away like I know you must
There'll be nothing left in this world to trust
Just an empty room full of empty space
Like that empty look I see on your face
I'd've been the shadow on your dark if I thought it would
Have kept you by my side

Ne me quitte pas, ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas, ne me quitte pas
