Ricky Nelson - Don't Let Your Goodbye Stand Lyrics

If you're changing can't include meIt was a matter of time I fear'Cause I hear most regularlyLike the turning of the yearThe young men gettin' olderGrow sincere much to dryI'll understand if I can't hold youI won't share the tears I'll cryWould you steal from a dyin' manLove from an outstretched handUpsets no prior planBelieve in meDon't let your goodbye standDon't let your goodbye standDon't let your goodbye standYou can have the better of meIt's your game and it's your rulesI'll concede to labels gladlyAs your warm affection coolsDon't put me out to pastureMend your lyin' eyes to meAnd it's true it just won't lastIf borrowed time is what you needWould you steal from a dyin' manLove from an outstretched handUpsets no prior planBelieve in meDon't let your goodbye standDon't let your goodbye standDon't let your goodbye standWould you steal from a dyin' manLove from an outstretched handUpsets no prior planBelieve in meDon't let your goodbye standDon't let your goodbye standDon't let your goodbye stand
