If You Leave Lyrics
If you leave, don't leave now
Please don't take my heart away
Promise me just one more night
Then we'll go our separate ways
We always had time on our sides
Now it's fading fast
Every second, every moment
We've gotta make it last
I touch you once, I touch you twice
I won't let go at any price
I need you now, like I needed you then
You always said we'd still be friends someday
If you leave, I won't cry
I won't waste a single day
But if you leave, don't look back
I'll be running the other way
Seven years went under the bridge
Like time was standing still
Heaven knows what happens now
You've gotta say you will
I touch you once, I touch you twice
I won't let go at any price
I need you now, like I needed you then
You always said we'd meet again someday (x2)
If you leave...
If you leave...
Don't look back...
Don't look back...
Please don't take my heart away
Promise me just one more night
Then we'll go our separate ways
Now it's fading fast
Every second, every moment
We've gotta make it last
I won't let go at any price
I need you now, like I needed you then
You always said we'd still be friends someday
I won't waste a single day
But if you leave, don't look back
I'll be running the other way
Like time was standing still
Heaven knows what happens now
You've gotta say you will
I won't let go at any price
I need you now, like I needed you then
You always said we'd meet again someday (x2)
If you leave...
Don't look back...
Don't look back...

to me. .this song is such a great classic. .so i was scared to hear this cover. .but i reaaaaaaally like it. .nada surf kicks ass
Heard it on the OC episode when Anna leaves... It's a beautiful song and it's the song that got me to listen to nada surf :D
yea i heard this song on a episode of the OC. it really was a good song for that scene
it sounded amazin in the o.c. scene
this is a very very nicely done cover! i like it better than the original in fact.
I ADORE THIS SONG AND THE O.C!!! nada surf did a good job covering it, i like it better than the origional and it was used at such a perfect time on the o.c it made anna leaving so much sader!~!! adam brody is toatlly adorable lol hes so hot lol and so is ben mckenize
god, the OC has wonderful music... self-explanitory.
bubblez and clairebaby..you 2 totally have the right idea. this song fits sooo well w/ the scene of anna leaving but it has been said that she might come back in like th 4th season or the end of the 3rd...something like that. nothing to do w/ the song...anyways i haven't heard any other songs from nada surf but this song is so addicting and well played i just might start
This song is amazing, i like it better than the original. The scene where anna left with this on the background was just magical. touch you once, touch you twice... amazing.
er, is this the O.C fansite? I thought this is songmeaning.net.
