If You Ever Leave Lyrics - Mr. Love & Justice - 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 onward 

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
