“Don’t Go Away” was released as the fourth and final single off of Be Here Now. It is a sad song about not wanting to lose someone you’re close to.
There are two general (and similar) theories as to how Noel got inspired to write the song. It is either about when Noel and Liam’s mum was hospitalize...
Don’t Go Away Lyrics
[Intro]
One, two, three, four
[Verse 1]
Cold and frosty morning, there's not a lot to say
About the things caught in my mind
And as the day was dawning my plane flew away
With all the things caught in my mind
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't wanna be there when you're coming down
I don't wanna be there when you hit the ground
[Chorus]
So don't go away
Say what you say
Say that you'll stay
Forever and a day
In the time of my life
'Cause I need more time
Yes, I need more time
Just to make things right
[Verse 2]
Damn my situation and the games I have to play
With all the things caught in my mind
Damn my education, I can't find the words to say
With all the things caught in my mind
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't wanna be there when you're calling down
I don't wanna be there when you hit the ground
[Chorus]
So don't go away
Say what you say
Say that you'll stay
Forever and a day
In the time of my life
'Cause I need more time
Yes, I need more time
Just to make things right
[Bridge]
Me and you, what's going on?
All we seem to know is how to show
The feelings that are wrong
[Chorus]
So don't go away
Say what you say
Say that you'll stay
Forever and a day
In the time of my life
'Cause I need more time
Yes, I need more time
Just to make things right
And don't go away
Say what you say
Say that you'll stay
Forever and a day
In the time of my life
'Cause I need more time
Yes, I need more time
Just to make things right
[Outro]
Yes, I need more time
Just to make things right
Yes, I need more time
Just to make things right
So don't go away

What did Oasis say about "Don't Go Away"?
Noel Gallagher to Q Magazine,
It’s a very sad song about not wanting to lose someone you’re close to. The middle eight I made up on the spot – I never had that lyric until the day we recorded it: ‘Me and you, what’s going on?/ All we seem to know is how to show/ The feelings that are wrong.’ It’s a...
