Can't Let You Fade

[Verse] Your eyes, they speak in shades of brown, Soft and kind, they pull me down. A laugh that cuts, a warm disguise, Your kindness wraps, but it denies. [Pre-Chorus] I told you the truth, I tore off the veil, Your answer, so soft, still tipped the scale. You smiled, you cared, but left me bare, Now I’m caught in the quiet despair. [Chorus] I can’t let you fade, though I know I should, You’re the fire that burns, but it does no good. Every word, every glance, it stays, I’m lost in the warmth of your untouchable blaze. [Verse] Your cheeky grin, it cuts me deep, Memories that I can’t keep. The softness in your every move, A dance of hope I can't remove. [Chorus] I can’t let you fade, though I know I should, You’re the fire that burns, but it does no good. Every word, every glance, it stays, I’m lost in the warmth of your untouchable blaze. [Bridge] I see you from afar, and it tears me apart, Knowing your kindness will never be mine to chart. But the ache is a friend I can’t betray, Even rejection feels better than you fading away. [Chorus] I can’t let you fade, though I know I should, You’re the fire that burns, but it does no good. Every word, every glance, it stays, I’m lost in the warmth of your untouchable blaze. [Outro] So I’ll hold onto the hurt, let it fill the void, Pretend I’m okay, though I’m destroyed. You’ll never be mine, but I won’t let go, Your memory’s a song that I’ll always know.
