When I was a boy, I had so much to live for Life was an open door, and time was on my side Then I became a man, so so much come and go Life was good and bad, with all those highs and lows When my world turns upside down Save my soul without a doubt You are the song that won't go away I'm gonna sing you forever night and day You are the one in my hall of fame Don't take it away In the middle of the night, lying in my bed Memories of you, spinning in my head Radio is dead, no, that wasn't a cry But I can't download you, to keep my dreams alive Nothing in this life's for free But music lives in you and me You are the song that won't go away I'm gonna sing you forever night and day You are the one in my hall of fame Don't take it away Don't take it away Take it away Oohh yeah! Take my joy and all my pride Rock-n-roll will never die (oh no) You are the song that won't go away I am gonna sing you forever night and day You are the joy the sun and the rain Don't take it away Yeaah! You are the song that won't go away I am gonna sing you forever night and day You are the one in my hall of fame Don't take it away Don't take it away Don't take it away No, no, no! Don't ever take it away from me Don't ever take it away from me Don't ever take it away from me Don't ever take it away from me Don't ever take it away from me Don't ever take it away from me Don't ever take it away from me No, no, no!
