text: Well now you say youve found another man who does things to you that I cant
  And that no matter what I do its all over now
  Between me and you girl
  But I cant believe what you say
  No I cant believe what you say
  Cause baby
  I dont want to fade away
  Oh I dont wanna fade away
  Tell me what can I do what can I say
  Cause darling I dont wanna fade away
  Well now you say that youve made up your mind
  Its been such a long, long time since its been good with us
  And that somewhere back along the line you lost your love and I lost your trust
  Now rooms that once were so bright are filled with the coming night, darling
  I dont want to fade away
  Oh I dont wanna fade away
  Tell me what can I do what can I say
  Cause darling I dont wanna fade away
  You say its not easy for you
  And that youve been so lonely
  While other girls go out doing what they want to do
  You say that you miss the nights when wed go out dancing
  The days when you and I walked as two
  Well girl I miss them too
  Oh I swear that I do
  Oh girl
  Now baby I dont wanna be just another useless memory holding you tight
  Or just some other ghost out on the street to whom you stop and politely speak
  When you pass on by vanishing into the night
  Left to vanish into the night
  No baby
  I dont want to fade away
  Oh I dont wanna fade away
  Tell me what can I do what can I say
  Cause darling I dont wanna fade away
  No darlin
  I dont wanna fade away
  No, I dont wanna fade away
  Tell me what can I do what can I say
  Oh darlin I dont wanna fade away
  Dont make me darling
  I dont wanna fade away
  Dont make me darling
  I dont wanna fade away
  I dont wanna fade away
  I dont wanna fade away
  I dont wanna fade away
