Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If ever I would leave you
It wouldn't be in summer
Seeing you in summer
I never would go
You're hair streaked with sunlight
Your lips red as flame
Your face with a luster
That puts gold to shame
[Verse 2]
But if I'd ever leave you
How could it be in autumn?
How I'd leave in autumn?
I never would know
I've seen how you sparkle
When fall nips the air
I know you in autumn
And I must be there
[Verse 3]
And could I leave you
Running merrily through the snow?
Or on a winter 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
[Verse 4]
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
Written by: Alan Jay Lerner, Frederick Loewe
