fading away Lyrics

Your gaze drifts somewhere far away

Even when I speak only echoes stay

We're walking the same road yet I feel alone

Standing close to you but you're already gone

How did we get here where we let go?

I reach for you but your touch feels so cold

Your face is distant like frost in the air

I still love you but it's breaking beyond repair

The shadows of goodbye slowly appear

The warmth we shared fades replaced by fear

I try to hold on but it slips away

Love grows faint and you drift astray

Your laughter no longer fills this space

The silence lingers I can't erase

I pretend not to see though I know it's real

This widening distance is all I can feel

Sometimes you look at me but it's not the same

Your eyes don't shine; it's like a quiet flame

I'm standing here trying to understand

But you've already let go of my hand

The shadows of goodbye slowly appear

The warmth we shared fades replaced by fear

I try to hold on but it slips away

Love grows faint and you drift astray

If only we could turn back time

I'd hold you close I'd call you mine

But time won't stop no matter how I try

I'm afraid to face a world where you say goodbye

The shadows of goodbye won't disappear

I'm clinging to hope though it's unclear

I try to hold on but you're fading still

I'll let you go if that's your will

As you walk away you don't look back

All that's left are memories in the cracks

The signs of goodbye have swallowed my heart

But I'll love you even as we fall apart
