Well you say I'm moving too fast
And all you want is the friendship to last
And I know that there's something else on your mind
My punk band was such a disgrace
A Mohawk and a safety pin in my face
Yeah I knew that we'd never get to second base
Didn't ever throw your notes away
Didn't drink your milkshake – Strawberry
Didn't ever dance with Lacey Mae
But you just don't want me
Love fades away
Fed me that line on the very last date
Love fades away
Just turn around and I'll be okay
Love fades away
Oh, and I don't want to fight
Love fades away
But didn't I treat you right
Well you say "It's not you, it's me"
I rushed you and you rushed Alfa Fi
The letters on your house are all Greek to me
Your pre-med prep, he's not as cute as me
But he's got status and stability
Yeah I knew that you'd love to be Mrs. M.D.
Didn't ever mention freshman fifteen
Didn't drink your wine – Strawberry
Should have got drunk at homecoming
Cause you just don't want me
Love fades away
Fed me that line on the very last date
Love fades away
Just turn around and I'll be okay
Love fades away
Oh, and I don't want to fight
Love fades away
But didn't I treat you right
