[Verse 1] I saw the light fade from your eyes Like a winter sun in a leaden sky We spoke in whispers, afraid to break The fragile silence that we both make [Chorus] And it's a long way down from where we stood I'd change the ending if I only could But the shadows grow and the fire dies Underneath these heavy, hollow skies [Verse 2] I trace the lines upon your palm A map of storms before the calm Every word we left unsaid Is a ghost that's dancing in my head [Chorus] And it's a long way down from where we stood I'd change the ending if I only could But the shadows grow and the fire dies Underneath these heavy, hollow skies [Outro] Fade away Fade away
