Something's going on in his life right now
Sitting on the sidelines, wishing I could help him out
He keeps telling me what he plans to do
Scaring me to death with the words he says
Fade away, fade away
Gone astray
Gotta fade away
Fade away, fade away
Can't face it another day
Just fade away, fade away
Nothing here's going to make me stay
Fade away, fade away, fade away
Every time he told me this
My heart broke
The thought of losing him
Reminded me it was no joke
I couldn't just tell him how I was feelin
Been down that road before
Lost who I loved
You can't fade away, fade away, fade away
Don't fade away, fade away
I need you here, here to stay
Don't fade away, fade away
You're the only one who understands
Don't fade away, fade away
You're the only one I can call my friend
Don't fade away, fade away
From me
Don't fade away, fade away
From me
