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 thankful for our time
Or would you hang your head and cry
Cause girl I know it could go either way
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 on what became of me
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
When he holds you in his arms
And you're layin' in our bed
Does he turn you on, the way that I did?
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 (Please don't let me go)
Fade away
Fade away
Please don't let me fade
Don't you ever let me go
