Da ra ra da
Da ra ra da da
Da ra ra da (x2)
You say
You love me
But they feel
Like words to me
But this just ain't working
Stop thinking
You can run over me
Drifting,
Settling
Of to a foreign place
If I can't see
What's in front of me
It's a mystery,
Well than apparently
Things just ain't the same
And I'm ready for change
Go on, begone, bye bye, so long
Can't you see that you're
Fading, fading, fading,
Fa-a-a-a-ding away
Away, away, away, away
I opened up my eyes,
And I finally realized
Today, today, it's too late
You're fading away
Put a sock in it just stop
Running your mouth
Got my mind made up,
I ain't coming back again
No way, no way, no way, no way
'Cuz I'm so fed up,
Boy you got me messed up
If you hit me back up,
Don't press your luck today, today
I'm blowing you away
Things just ain't the same
And I'm ready for change
Go on, begone, ta ta, so long
Can't you see that you're
Fading, fading, fading,
Fa-a-a-a-ding away
Away, away, away, away
I opened up my eyes,
And I finally realized
Today, today, it's too late
You're fading away
Saw you turn into a ghost
Right in front of my eyes
Tell me what's a girl to do
When she's crying inside
I'm about to go insane
I'm jumping off this train
Whether wrong or right,
I'll be gone by night
Can't you see that you're
Fading, fading, fading,
Fa-a-a-a-ding away
Away, away, away, away
I opened up my eyes,
And I finally realized
Today, today, it's too late
You're fading away
