Fade away

Fade Away

 

 

 

 

STR.1:

Here comes the last dusk

of my life (time)

And I'm longing for the night

My hands are covered with the moonlight

and write this old man's last "goodbye"

 

 

 

About a life ~between the lines~

 

No-one heard ~my distressed (/desperate) prayer~

 

 

 

 

 

(And) I clasped my hands in vain...

 

CHORUS:

Passing yesterday

I only reached the way

On which tomorrow 'll come

To guide me home

 

 

This life's not worth my pride

One thought remains inside:

No-one comes to stay

Now, let me fade away

 

 

 

 

STR.2:

Just like memories fade

In time's relentless undertow

That took away all (the) reasons

for me being

And left me here alone

 

 

 

My bane of life - ~so take me too~

 

But no-one hears ~my distressed (/desperate) prayer~

 

 

 

 

 

(And) I clasped my hands in vain...

 

CHORUS:

s.o.

 

 

 

 

BRIDGE:

~You're (all) gone~

 

 

 

Now, that I'm holdin' my life in hands

And the will to stay's about to end

 

 

 

I clasp my hands as tight as I can

 

 

 

I close my eyes and life ~becomes a dream~

 

 

 

 

 

(And) I'll clasp my hands no more...

 

CHORUS:

s.o.
