1.) I wish I was half as faded as you, cheeks so red and eyes of blue.

why'd you have to go away and say good bye?
2.) I wish I was half as faded as you,
maybe I'd forget what I'm going through.
I never quite finished what I had to say,

br.) That day never came and a few went by,
I promised myself, that I wouldn't cry.
Seeing you here brought a tear to my eye,
why'd you have to go away and say good bye.
3.) I wish I was half as faded as you,
seeing you laughing and flirting too.
What makes you think that I'm high and dry,
why'd you have to go away and say good bye.
