Don't Fade Away
Written by Larry Olsen
When I think about the times I held you,
I wonder why I left and let you stay.
Seems I always let the things I love, just slip by.
But I don't think I'll ever let the memory fade away.
Well I've got to do the things I said I had to do,
But some good things are passed along the way.
Maybe someday I'll want to stop and sing another song.
And when I do I hope you'll listen to me play.
I knew when I met you, I'd have to leave you soon,
But I didn't think I'd grow to feel this way.
Now the sadness is gone, I can carry on,
And I'm only left with one thing more to say.
Don't fade away, don't fade away,
I can see your face before me when I play.
Maybe someday I'll want to stop and sing another song,
And when I do I hope you'll listen to me play.
So don't fade away.
