Never Fade Away

Verse

Years went by, and I carried the pain

Of the day you left and never came

Then one morning, like a dream in the rain

You stood before me, calling my name

Pre-chorus

Your eyes were softer, your hands were cold

But my heart felt young, no longer old

Chorus

You came back and lit my world again

Brought the colors to a sky of gray

But deep inside I trembled, afraid

Afraid you’d slip away…

Verse

We built new memories, gentle and warm

I held you closer, tried to keep you from harm

But love can’t bargain with time or fate

I woke one morning, and it was too late

Pre-chorus

Your smile was fading, your voice grew thin

I reached for your hand, but the wind came in

Chorus

You came back and lit my world again

Brought the colors to a sky of gray

But deep inside I trembled, afraid

Afraid you’d slip away…

Bridge

Now you’re gone beyond the endless blue

No goodbye could ever carry my truth

Heaven’s taken you, but my soul still cries

I see you shining in the morning skies

Outro

You came back and lit my world again

Then left forever where angels stay

But in my heart you’ll never fade

No, you’ll never fade away…
