Lyrics:

I watched you steal away
A man's best years
With the drumming of his fingers
With the kicking of his heels

I watched you put away
Your sweetest sins
I watched tempters satisfy
With the sweetest taste
of wasted time

Don't let me disappear
Don't let me let me fall apart
Don't lead me to the wayside
Just don't let me go
Don't let me fade away

I watched him travel down
A steady road
With no milestones
Just a gentle slope

Soft underfoot,
No sudden turns to warn of sliding
down that safe and sound
But all too familiar road
This is all too familiar

Don't let me disappear
Don't let me let me fall apart
Don't lead me to the wayside
Just don't let me go
Don't let me fade away

Just keep this off my mind
Anything or not a thing will do

I watched you steal away
A man's best years
With the drumming of his fingers
With the kicking of his heels

Without the twinkle in his eye
I watched him beg and plead his moving lips
and bended knee
Just to have you back

Be numb my heart
O' nothingness

Don't let me disappear
Don't let me let me fall apart
Don't lead me to the wayside
Just don't let me go
Don't let me fade away

They've got you wrapped around their fingers
Because anything or not a thing will do
(A DEAD FIRE IN A COLD ROOM)
