Outside the window, sunset fades away, The final colors of the day descend, Inside the room, the shadows softly sway, With a sad and lingering trend. And in this dimming, gentle gleam, Your features I begin to trace, As if through ages, like a dream, Your aspirations fill this space. Fading light, the day now on the wane, You carry with you all my sorrow's plight. Fading light, like a distant, soft refrain, You leave behind a quiet, endless night. The wind's soft whisper by the wall, Reminds me of what used to be, Of a love that answered silence's call, Hidden within the depths of me. And raindrops falling on the pane, Like tears for meetings never kept, Within this evening's misty reign, I try to keep the memory swept. Fading light, the day now on the wane, You carry with you all my sorrow's plight. Fading light, like a distant, soft refrain, You leave behind a quiet, endless night. Time flies on, it won't return, But in my memory, you'll reside, That bright and traveled path I yearn, Will in my heart forever bide. Fading light, the day now on the wane, You carry with you all my sorrow's plight. Fading light, like a distant, soft refrain, You leave behind a quiet, endless night. Fading light... receding evermore, Fading light... in silent, soft deplore. Fading light...
