Don't Go Away Lyrics
we were sharing so many words and feelings
age is heavier, it seems, than years alone
but, i told you things i wouldn't dream of telling anyone
are we drifting out, like flowers from a forgotten someone
don't go away
i can't feel the same without you
we were making so many plans and secrets
we would both be millionaires or kings or presidents
but like everything those little dreams
just kind of came and went
hard now just to make ends meet
how soon we all forget
age is heavier, it seems, than years alone
but, i told you things i wouldn't dream of telling anyone
are we drifting out, like flowers from a forgotten someone
i can't feel the same without you
we would both be millionaires or kings or presidents
but like everything those little dreams
just kind of came and went
hard now just to make ends meet
how soon we all forget

I thought this song was about a woman when I first heard it. I then heard Glen say it was about a childhood friend moving away.
This song is phenomenal. The lyrics are great and the tone is just so heartfelt.
i made this disc when this guy i'm close to was gone...this was the very last song on the disc. it says everything about our friendship...i never want it to go away.
I really like this song in every way except for the chorus; it sounds too much like whining. But then again, I guess it is supposed to...
