"Fade Away" lyrics

If I died today, I wonder what you'd say
Would you criticize my life, or smile and wave goodbye?
If I died today, would you be afraid?
Would you be thankfull for our time or would you hang your head and cry?
Cause Girl I know it could go either way

[Chorus:]
Baby Baby don't you look back
All your tears won't change your past
They'll only drown the smiles on your face
And maybe Baby all that we had, was never ever meant to last
So let me go, but don't you let me fade, away

Don't You Let Me Fade

If you close a door, swim for the shore
Walk straight into the sun and let the healing horses run
Cause it won't do you any good to bleed
Another tear, Oh what became of me?

[CHORU: S]
Baby Baby don't you look back
All your tears won't change your past
They'll only drown the smiles on your face
And maybe Baby all that we had, was never ever meant to last
So let me go, but don't you let me fade

When he holds you in his arms, and your laying in my bed
Does he turn you on, the way that I did?

[Guitar solo]

[Chorus:]
Baby Baby don't you look back
All your tears won't change your past
They'll only drown the smiles on your face
And maybe Baby all that we had, was never ever meant to last
So let me go, but don't you let me fade

Fade Away, Fade Away - Please don't let me fade [x2]
(Please don't let me go)
Don't you let me, let me go
