TO YOU, by                    
First Line: If you should go away, however far
Last Line: Than that you stay -- and send away your heart.
Subject(s): Farewell; Parting


If you should go away, however far,
I'd miss you, dear, far more than I can say.
But if you left your heart at home with me
I still could live and laugh and even play.
Far better that you go though we must part
Than that you stay -- and send away your heart.
