"Don't Go Away" was one of five singles Australian rock band Grinspoon cut loose from Guide to Better Living, their debut album, which Grudge Records, an imprint of Universal Music Australia, put out on 16 September 1997. Pat Davern, Joe Hansen and Phil Jamieson wrote it, and Phil McKellar, who produced the album, co-produced it with the band, recorded it and mixed it, with Greg Courtney and Aaron Pratley assisting.

It shares the record with "Pedestrian", "DC×3", "Repeat" and "Just Ace", a loud, restless calling card that earned the band an ARIA nomination for Breakthrough Artist in 1998 and went platinum.
