You say you love me

Well they feel like words to me

Well this just ain't workin'

Stop thinkin' you can run over me

I'm driftin', I'm settlin'

Off to a foreign place

If I can't see what's in front of me

It's a mystery, well then 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-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

'Cause 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, tah tah, so long

Can't you see that you're

Fading, fading, fading, fa-a-a-a-away

Away, away, away, away

I opened up my eyes, and I finally realized

Today, today, it's too late

You're fading away

So you turned 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 and say

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-away

Away, away, away, away

I opened up my eyes, and I finally realized

Today, today, it's too late

You're fading away
