"Faded Life"
i heard you say don't walk away,
and i did
i heard you say i love you,
and did i feel the same?
i do
i heard you say don't leave me here
i'm lonely, it's not you that i fear
i heard you say i'm dying,
you saw my face - you felt like crying
i heard you say hold me close, hold me tight
so i held you on through the night
Now i lay you down to rest -
you did what you thought was best
the memory how it haunts me
such a glance, the softest of skin, wax dripping so paper thin
you were the fabric that moves my life
and the wool that kept me together inside
i'll never forget you - cause you walked me through life.
that gaz in your eyes,
i remember when you died,
etch that memory for the next sunrise.
those rings around your eyes made you look so faded.
come to me and say you'll live one more day
for that my friend i will pray
