Lyrics
It?s not your style to say goodbye
So it ain?t like I?m sittin here wondering why
The summertime is here my dear
A warm wind blows at night but there ain?t no atmosphere
Now the sun?s shining in through my window and I want to feel it go straight to my head
Forget how I smiled at you sleeping there next to me chasing me ?round my own bed
These are the things that won?t fade away
These are the things that won?t fade away
These are the things that won?t fade away
Won?t fade away, my babe
So Easily
Now I ride around in a land of make believe
I know it ain?t so good for me but I can do it so easily
You?ve gone ahead, that?s something that I can?t pretend
Neither is the feeling I get when I think of you here again
I never got to tell you about all of the daydreams where you and I drive the highway
Mountains and valleys and brightly cold mornings so cold we could not break away
These are the things that won?t fade away
These are the things that won?t fade away
These are the things that won?t fade away
Won?t fade away, my babe
So Easily
All of the places I was sure we would go to, they?re still standing waiting for me
I?ve forgotten the memories we won?t get to make, but they won?t stop haunting me
These are the things that won?t fade away
These are the things that won?t fade away
These are the things that won?t fade away
Won?t fade away, my babe
So Easily
