Ricky Nelson - Don't Let Your Goodbye Stand lyrics

rate me

(R. Stekol)

If you're changing can't include me

It was a matter of time I fear

'Cause I hear most regularly

Like the turning of the year.

The young men gettin' older

Grow sincere much to dry

I'll understand if I can't hold you

I won't share the tears I'll cry.

Would you steal from a dyin' man

Love from an outstretched hand

Upsets no prior plan

Believe in me.

Don't let your goodbye stand

Don't let your goodbye stand

Don't let your goodbye stand.

You can have the better of me

It's your game and it's your rules

I'll concede to labels gladly

As your warm affection cools.

Don't put me out to pasture

Mend your lyin' eyes to me

And it's true it just won't last

If borrowed time is what you need.

Would you steal from a dyin' man

Love from an outstretched hand

Upsets no prior plan

Believe in me.

Don't let your goodbye stand

Don't let your goodbye stand

Don't let your goodbye stand.

Would you steal from a dyin' man

Love from an outstretched hand

Upsets no prior plan

Believe in me.

Don't let your goodbye stand

Don't let your goodbye stand

Don't let your goodbye stand...
