[Verse 1] Rode the train out to the house Spent the night on your pullout couch Couldn't sleep Though I tried Watched you from the hallway light [Pre-Chorus] And I know this happens to everyone But the closer you get The further you go And I don't know how you can be so strong [Chorus] Watching you sit in your chair Fading away Fading away Knowing you'll go But I don't know where Fading away Fading away [Verse 2] Driving home Called my mom Told her everything I had on She said "Baby I'm right there with you You know that I'll never leave you" [Pre-Chorus] And I know this happens to everyone But the closer you get The further you go And I don't know how you can be so strong [Chorus] Watching you sit in your chair Fading away Fading away Knowing you'll go But I don't know where Fading away Fading away Watching you sit in your chair Fading away Fading away Knowing you'll go But I don't know where Fading away Fading away [Outro] Fading away Fading away Fading away Fading away
