Robert Goulet (1960) - If Ever I Would Leave You

If Ever I Would Leave You

Broadway Musical: Camelot (1960)
Words: Jay Lerner
Music: Frederic Loewe
Richard Burton: King Arthur
Julie Andrews: Guenevere
Robert Goulet: Lancelot du Lac


Robert Goulet (Lancelot) to Julie Andrews (Guenevere):

If ever I would leave you, it wouldn't be in summer
Seeing you in summer, I never would go
Your hair streaked with sunlight, your lips red as flame
Your face with a luster that puts gold to shame

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

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 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

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

Vocal: Dorsey Anderson

Maria Elena, you're the answer to a prayer
Maria Elena, can't you see how much I care
To me your voice is like the echo of a sigh
And when you're near, my heart can't speak above a sigh

Maria Elena, say that we will never part
Maria Elena, take me to your heart
A love like mine is great enough for two
To share this love is really all I ask of you

(Interlude)

Maria Elena, say that we will never part
Maria Elena, take me to your heart
A love like mine is great enough for two
To share this love is really all I ask of you

The closing of an Autumn evening is like the running of a hound across the moor. Night is a good herd: she brings all creatures home.

Artist: Elvis Presley

Can't you see I love you
Please don't break my heart in two
That's not hard to do
'Cause I don't have a wooden heart
And if you say goodbye
Then I know that I would cry
Maybe I would die
'Cause I don't have a wooden heart

There's no strings upon this love of mine
It was always you from the start
Treat me nice
Treat me good
Treat me like you really should
'Cause I'm not made of wood
And I don't have a wooden heart

Muss i denn, muss i denn
Zum Stadtele hinaus
Stadtele hinaus
Und du, mein schat, bleibst hier

Muss i denn, muss i denn
Zum Stadtele hinaus
Stadtele hinaus
Und du, mein schat, bleibst hier

There's no strings upon this love of mine
It was always you from the start

Sei mir gut
Sei mir gut
Sei mir wie du wirklich sollst
Wie du wirklich sollst

'Cause I don't have a wooden heart

World Wide Communion Sunday, 2007

You {we) were all called to travel on the same road and in the same direction, so stay together, both outwardly and inwardly. You (We) have one Master, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all, who rules over all, works through all, and is present in all. Everything you (we) are and think and do is permeated with Oneness.

-- Ephesians 4:4-6  from The Message
(parenthesis mine)

To all in God's family, His peace and blessings on you.
