Fade Away Lyrics

What went on behind those eyes

You were lost with no one to blame

Yet you always kept that gentle smile

Ever a pleasant man you remained

There's no predicting what life will hold

Even when you think there's more time

Suddenly things change and they're taken away

To lose it fast or slowly fade away

Makes no difference the pain will always stay

Take me back to those cold winter nights

With the woodstove on and your soft melody

Fills the room with a feeling unique

This comfort and warmth will be your legacy

There's no predicting what life will hold

Even when you think there's more time

Suddenly things change and they're taken away

To lose it fast or slowly fade away

Makes no difference the pain will always stay

I can see parts of you in me

It's both comfort and agony

With time I'll become the man you would want me to be

There's no predicting what life will hold

Even when you think there's more time

Suddenly things change and they're taken away

To lose it fast or slowly fade away

Makes no difference the pain will always stay
