Fade Away Lyrics
The day is done, the blinds are drawn
The sound of afternoon is gone
The corner store has locked its door
And everyone has left for homeWhen their sleepy little heads
Settle snug inside their beds
You and I will stay
And watch the sun fade awayThe balladeer, the buccaneer
The liar, the man who would be king
The cavalier, the profiteer
The one who knows only sufferingAs the cannons gather rust
All their castles turn to dust
You and I will stay
To see them all fade awayWe are on an endless flight my friend
With no beginning and no end
I've forgotten more than I rememberSometimes I want to hide myself away
But I know there's no escape
We must go on, go for foreverThe sea will rise, mountains fall
The earth will turn itself upside down
But we have seen it all before
We will always be aroundIn a hundred million years
When the planet disappears
You and I will stay
And watch the world fade awayAnd in a million trillion years
When the stars all disappear
You and I will stay
And watch it all fade awayFade away
Fade away
Fade away
