Fading Fast Into Gold (versie 2)

Verse

Coffee cold and the streetlamp hums

Every goodbye's been rehearsed like a song that comes too soon

Dust on your shoes where the cornfield gold turned brown

I'm already missing something I've never known

Pre-Chorus

So how do we keep from getting lost

When every exit feels like this?

Tell me, is it the ending or the light

That makes us brave enough to move tonight

Chorus

Fading fast into gold

Every sunset leaves a little less unknown

Hands up in the rearview glow

We're burning down what we used to know

Verse 2

The radio starts singing about a new address

Your mom's got a smile that says goodbye is still bliss

We count stars like they're promises kept, not debts

I'm holding on so tight but I won't regret

Pre-Chorus

So how do we keep from getting lost

When every exit feels like this?

Tell me, is it the ending or the light

That makes us brave enough to move tonight

Chorus

Fading fast into gold

Every sunset leaves a little less unknown

Hands up in the rearview glow

We're burning down what we used to know

Bridge

Maybe it's not about erasing every name

Just learning how to keep the good without the shame

I'll hold onto this ache like it's proof that I was here

Not just a ghost behind some window, crying

Chorus

Fading fast into gold

Every sunset leaves a little less unknown

Hands up in the rearview glow

We're burning down what we used to know
