Over Too Soon
Small Faces Lyrics
Don't let me find that it's over too soon
Don't let me find that it's over too soon
When I'm here, I wanna be
I wanna be around her
She always make me
So much pleasure
And I'm so glad that I found her
Cause I know that time is limited
Oho then...
Don't make me feel that it's over too soon
Don't make me feel that it's over too soon
I just want to hold her
And feel her
Feel I'm going closer to me
Cause when we're not together
The woman thinks that's the way it always gonna be
Honey.
Babe, I know the thing around me for
But that's just his news, ain't gonna happen no more
Don't make me feel that it's over too soon
Don't make me feel that it's over too soon
If I can see you every mornin'
I think then you will all die
I'm sittin' here watchin' a dumb hug
Or maybe, baby, I'm wronger
Tell me, I'm glad
I used to be a loner, don't you know that?
Times slip away
And every since I knew her
Time's been on my side
And that's why I say
Listen, honey.
You're outta my sight but you're never outta my mind
So when I become alone
Don't let me find, don't let me
Don't let me find that it's over too soon
Don't let me find that it's over too soon
Don't let me find that it's over too soon
Don't let me find that it's over too soon
Don't let me find that it's over too soon
Don't let me find that it's over too soon
Don't let me find that it's over too soon
Don't let me find that it's over too soon
Don't let me find that it's over too soon
Don't let me find that it's over too soon
Don't let me find that it's over too soon

Small Faces were an influential British mod/psychedelic band of the 1960s, led by Steve Marriott and Ronnie Lane with Kenney Jones and Ian McLagan (who replaced original organist Jimmy Winston). The Small Faces were all genuine East End mods . They were signed to Decca records initially and enjoyed major success across Europe between 1965 and 1967 with classic singles like "All or Nothing" and "Sha-La-La-La-Lee" before moving to a new label.

They were signed to Decca records initially and enjoyed major success across Europe between 1965 and 1967 with classic singles like "All or Nothing" and "Sha-La-La-La-Lee" before moving to a new label.
By late 1967, the band had felt constricted financially & creatively by manager Don Arden (father of Sharon Osbourne), and were lured by Rolling Stones' publicist Andrew Loog Oldham into signing with his new Immediate label. They soon recorded more expansive psychedelic sounding material including hit pop tunes like "Lazy Sunday" which was included with their UK number one classic concept album Ogdens Nut Gone Flake and "Itchycoo Park" which was their only stateside charting single.
The demise of the Small Faces arrived on New Years Eve 1968, when Steve Marriott walked off stage at The Alexandra Palace in London. Marriott felt that despite the success of the group, he was still not being taken seriously as a musician. He went on to achieve major status in the U.S.A with Peter Frampton in Humble Pie. The others continued as the Faces, opting to drop the "Small" after one LP as new recruits Rod Stewart and Ronnie Wood towered above their new band mates. Drummer Kenney Jones later joined The Who after the death of their drummer Keith Moon. As years went on, Marriott kept recording various lineups as Humble Pie but became somewhat of a caricature and casualty of rock excess. Tragically, Steve Marriott died in a house fire in 1991 and Ronnie Lane followed him in 1997 after a long battle with Multiple Sclerosis. Keyboardist Ian McLagan has continued to tour and record with his own band as well as with artists like Billy Bragg, The New Barbarians ( a group composed of Ian, Ron Wood, Keith Richards, Stanley Clarke, and Billy Cobham), and The Rolling Stones. According to announcements at the shows on the New Barbarians tour, the proceeds of the live gigs were going to pay Ronnie Lane's medical expenses associated with Ronnie's struggle with Multiple Sclerosis.
The Small Faces remain one of British rock's most important legacy acts, with their membership having links to so many other acts. Amongst the many bands they influenced were The Jam, Ramones, Oasis and X.
There are a number of locations around London linked to the Small Faces, many to be found in the East End where they grew up.
The J60 Music bar in Manor Park, an instrument shop where Steve Marriott first met Ronnie Lane

Little Ilford park, also located in Manor Park, inspired the track Itchycoo Park, Steve and other kids in the East End used to play in this park when they grew up.

In 1968 the Small Faces recorded a video for their track Lazy Sunday, Steve sings in his native East end accent and the video was shot in the East End using Kenney Jones parents' flat in Havering Street. The video ends with a shot of the nearby Thames.
