She Fades Away Lyrics

She's like a frost fern in my head
The lamplight burns my eyes
And then she fades awayMy pencil's frozen in my hand
And the letter I can't write
It seems to be a desert without endI woke up late at night
She called me up
Then disappearedAnd the echo of her voice
Filled the empty places in my dreams
With the silent tideShe fades away again
She fades away
She fades away again
Don't go now, please stayMy senses are cruising through a void
As pale reflections play on
The deserted roadsI hear the humming of machines
A distant sound like thunder
Crawling through the coldThere's no escape I know
I run around in circles
Without endAnd the more the memory grows

Dissolving from reality
With the silent tideShe fades away again
She fades away
She fades away again
Don't go now, please stayDon't make me cryThis time I've got to learn
I know, she won't return
This time I've got to learn
I know, she won't returnThis time I've got to learn
I know, she won't return
This time I've got to learn
I know, she won't returnDon't make me cry
Don't make me cry
Don't make me cry
Don't make me cryThis time
I know, she won't return
This timeDon't make me
Don't make me
Don't make me
