Keep Away From Me
Graham Nash · Other Songs - Graham Nash
I started out to get your full attention
But I just have to say
There's just one thing that I forgot to mention
You'd better stay away
Keep away from me
Keep away from me
Keep away from me
Oh, keep away from me
You always brag about your latest venture
How much you're gonna make
I'm not opposed to making lots of money
But how much does it take, oh
Keep away from me
Keep away from me
Keep away from me
Oh, keep away from me
I don't want to hear about your latest journey
Or where you're gonna be
I don't want to look at all your family photos
It's all too much for me
Keep away from me
Keep away from me
Keep, keep, keep away from me
Oh, keep away from me
Ooh, keep away from me
Oh, keep away from me
Keep, keep, keep away from me
I tell you one more time, keep away from me
Keep away from me
Keep away from me
Keep away from me
Keep, keep, keep, keep, keep away from me
Don't wanna see you
Don't wanna hear you, ooh
But I just have to say
There's just one thing that I forgot to mention
You'd better stay away
Keep away from me
Keep away from me
Keep away from me
Oh, keep away from me
You always brag about your latest venture
How much you're gonna make
I'm not opposed to making lots of money
But how much does it take, oh
Keep away from me
Keep away from me
Keep away from me
Oh, keep away from me
I don't want to hear about your latest journey
Or where you're gonna be
I don't want to look at all your family photos
It's all too much for me
Keep away from me
Keep away from me
Keep, keep, keep away from me
Oh, keep away from me
Ooh, keep away from me
Oh, keep away from me
Keep, keep, keep away from me
I tell you one more time, keep away from me
Keep away from me
Keep away from me
Keep away from me
Keep, keep, keep, keep, keep away from me
Don't wanna see you
Don't wanna hear you, ooh
Keep Away From Me
Recorded by Graham Nash, this track exemplifies the introspective acoustic style that defined his solo career following his departure from Crosby, Stills & Nash. Released as a standalone recording, the song features Nash's signature clean guitar work and vocal delivery, characteristic of the folk-rock genre prevalent in the 1970s. The composition reflects themes of emotional distance and personal reflection, aligning with Nash's broader body of work during this period. It stands as a testament to his ability to craft intimate, guitar-driven ballads that resonate with listeners seeking authenticity in their music.
