Lyrics for If You Leave as interpreted by Jillian04

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...

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.

this is not an oc fansite bt the oc rulz... some ppl jst watch it to get the music off it. anyway this song is about someone who leaves an he has just realised that he needs her more than eva and remembers how they were together "i touch u once, i touch u twice" and then realises how he cant leave her even though she said theyd meet again.

Worst song to listen to after you hav just broken up with ur girl! But so delicate and emotional very similar to the new slow tracks on snow patrols eyes open.

This cover is just amazing. It's probably my favourite musical moment from The OC. I'm a guy and I struggled to fight back the tears during that
