[Intro] [4/4 house groove, deep kick, crisp hats, Rhodes stabs, melodic bass] [Verse 1] [low intimate male vocal] Maybe it’s the season turning Maybe it’s the weight I wear Too much moving, too much changing Still I feel you everywhere Give me something I can hold to In the dark before the blue I’m just trying to make it through the night Trying not to watch it slip from view [Verse 2] Same old city, different shadow Same old smoke along the glass Every second keeps on bending Like I’m chasing what we had Give me one more sign to stay for One more spark to pull me through I can feel it in the way the room moves Like the air still leads to you [Chorus] [layered harmonies, lifted chords] Don’t fade away Don’t fade away Leave it on the line one more time Stay in the light just one more night Don’t fade away Don’t fade away Falling back to what I know Trying not to let you go [Post-Chorus] [breathy ad-libs] Stay with me Stay in reach Don’t fade away Don’t fade away [Verse 3] Maybe it was always fragile Maybe that’s what made it burn All the silence in between us Still keeps waiting for your turn I’m not asking for forever Just a little honest truth Something in the rhythm keeps saying There’s still a way back to you [Bridge] [deeper groove, sparse vocal] If I lose the feeling If I lose the flame Tell me what to carry Tell me what remains In the low light In the blue haze I still hear your name I still hear your name [Chorus] [layered harmonies, open lift] Don’t fade away Don’t fade away Leave it on the line one more time Stay in the light just one more night Don’t fade away Don’t fade away Falling back to what I know Trying not to let you go [Outro] [repeating hook, stripped groove] Don’t fade away Don’t fade away Stay in the light Stay in the light Don’t fade away
