Fading Light

(Verse 1)

You used to call me every morning

Now I wake up to the silence and the rain

Your sweater’s hanging by the doorway

Like you’re still here, but you’re not the same

(Pre-Chorus)

I tried to hold the sun before it slipped away

But even summer skies can turn to grey

(Chorus)

Now the light is fading, slowly from your eyes

Like the warmth we had is saying its goodbye

I can feel the distance growing with the tide

You were here, but now you’re just the fading light

(Verse 2)

We danced beneath the city glowing

Laughing like we’d never taste the end

But promises don’t keep you closer

They just echo when the nights begin

(Pre-Chorus)

And I replay the words you never really said

In empty dreams I chase what’s in my head

(Chorus)

Now the light is fading, slowly from your eyes

Like the warmth we had is saying its goodbye

I can feel the distance growing with the tide

You were here, but now you’re just the fading light

(Bridge)

Maybe hearts just change with time

Like shadows stretching past the line

I still smile when I recall

But you’re not mine, not mine at all

(Final Chorus)

Now the light is fading, soft and out of reach

Like a voice that disappears beneath the breeze

I still see your outline under city lights

But you’re gone, just like the fading light
