If You Ever Leave - Billy Bragg

Walking out together

All along the shore

Arm in arm beneath the cliffs that tower above us

We hear the breakers roar

Here we found each other

Here we made our home

Took the sea, the sky, the sun, the summertime

Made it all our own

If you ever leave

If you ever leave me

If you ever leave, my dear

There’s nothing for me here

The storms that pound the harbor

Scatter driftwood on the beach

A million stars that fill the winter night sky

Seem just beyond our reach

Tides of time march onwards

Just as sunshine follows rain

The season’s ever changing, ever moving on

Yet our love remains

If you ever leave

If you ever leave me

If you ever leave, my love

You can take the stars above

If you ever leave

If you ever leave me

If you ever leave, my love

Then you can bring the curtain down

On this lonesome town
