Fadeaway

That flame blew out in a cross-fade wind And I don't know if it'll get lit again Watched your taillights fade in a red sunset And now I'm trying like hell to try and forget That It's broken, you're long gone Everything that coulda been went wrong and I tried, my best To hold on to what I could but you just slipped Right outta my fingertips Right off of my lips Swore everything would be okay And you would never leave, you'd always stay Then I watched you fade away Nothing hurts worse than stovetop burn After the first time, you'd think I'd learn That it was always gonna end like this With a fell-short wish And it can't be fixed 'cause It's broken, you're long gone Everything that coulda been went wrong and I tried my best To hold on to what I could but you just slipped Right outta my fingertips Right off of my lips Swore everything would be okay And you would never leave, you'd always stay Then I watched you fade away And then I watched you fade away Yeah, it was always gonna end like this With a fell-short wish And it can't be fixed 'cause It's broken, you're long gone Everything that coulda been went wrong and I tried my best To hold on to what I could but you just slipped Right outta my fingertips Right off of my lips Swore everything would be okay And you would never leave, you'd always stay Then I watched you fade away And then I watched you fade away And it's broken, you're long gone --- Fadeaway - Bailey Zimmerman
