Fade Away
In the echoes of my mind,
I'm staring at your picture.
The corners yellow and tattered,
Your face is slowly fading.
I am waiting, hoping that the colour
Will return to your cheeks.
Your smile used to make
my heart sing and soar.
But now my heart sinks
As I see the love has vanished.
I strain to see the glimmer
That once was in your eyes.
Your fading eyes,
Your fading eyes.
I'm staring at your picture.
The corners yellow and tattered,
Your face is slowly fading.
I am waiting, hoping that the colour
Will return to your cheeks.
Your smile used to make
my heart sing and soar.
But now my heart sinks
As I see the love has vanished.
I strain to see the glimmer
That once was in your eyes.
Your fading eyes,
Your fading eyes.
