If Ever I Would Leave You (From ”Camelot”)
If ever I would leave you, it wouldn't be in summer
Seeing you in summer I never would go
Your hair streaked with sun-light, 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 spring time?
Knowing how in spring, I'm bewitched by you so?
Oh, no! Not in spring time! Summer, winter or fall
No, never could I leave you at all
If ever I would leave you, how could it be in spring time?
Knowing how in spring, I'm bewitched by you so?
Oh, no! Not in spring time! Summer, winter or fall
No, never could I leave you at all
