Fade Away

Hey mother don't you fade away
Don't you ever think it's gone that way
Say you stay for another day
I can see that you can't make it stay

Hey won't you come and stay around
Look and see for a better ground
Please don't you let me see you use that frown
Try to get you from lost and found

Hey, hey, hey, yeah, yeah
Hey, hey, hey, yeah, yeah

Hey mother don't you close your eyes
Don't you ever think that time just flies
Don't you leave me for other skies
I can see that you can't take the prize

Hey, hey, hey, yeah, yeah
Hey, hey, hey, yeah, yeah

Hey won't you come and lay you down
Look and see for a better crown
Please don't you let me hear you use that noun
Try to get you from that damned old town

Don't you take it for a sadder day
Don't you start to fade away

I can not foresee
How things are to be
It's getting so dark
No sign of a spark
Four minutes are all
Then you come to the wall
Why don't you walk away with pride on your side
Everything that you used is just your heart only heart
You've used your heart

Hey mother don't you fade away
Don't you ever think it's gone that way
Say you stay for another day
I can see that you can't make it stay

It's hard to recognise you
You ain't the same anymore
But I think that you're happy sometimes
That's what I hope for

Hey, hey, yeah, yeah
Hey, hey, yeah, yeah
Hey, hey, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
