Slow Fade（版本 2）

Verse

Barefoot in the backseat window glass

Watching sunbeams turn the highway red at last

Your hand on mine where the seatbelt used to be

Same old engine hum, same old you and me

The clock on my phone still says it's your time

Sunlight through the rearview mirror blurs the lines

I learned how to love in these rusty lines

You left for college, I stayed behind

Pre-Chorus

So here we are at four-o-clock in gold

Same old story, same old hands I've grown to hold

Do you still remember what it was like when it wasn't gone?

Every day a little slower till the light is gone

Oh, do you miss this place at all?

Did the moving truck take your heart with it or just leave it small?

Chorus

We're leaving winter on the highway lines

The slow fade out of this old town's signs

Same old sun, same old dust and time

Only the shadows know that I still remember you like a rhyme

We're letting go but we won't forget

Every sunset here is still a little bit we made yet

Verse

The diner closed down where your mom used to make us pie

But they kept the neon sign lit up in the sky

I've been walking these streets with a ghost of you by my side

Same old porch swing swinging under different stars tonight

The mailman still calls out on his afternoon round

Checks his watch and shakes his head at all that's left behind

You were the reason I thought forever was real, not just an end of the street

Now the only sound is my own heartbeat on repeat

Do you ever drive back through these old familiar places?

Just for a visit or just to erase them?

Pre-Chorus

So here we are at four-o-clock in gold

Same old story, same old hands I've grown to hold

Do you still remember what it was like when it wasn't gone?

Every day a little slower till the light is gone

Oh, do you miss this place at all?

Did the moving truck take your heart with it or just leave it small?

Chorus

We're leaving winter on the highway lines

The slow fade out of this old town's signs

Same old sun, same old dust and time

Only the shadows know that I still remember you like a rhyme

We're letting go but we won't forget

Every sunset here is still a little bit we made yet

Bridge

Maybe you're living where the streetlights shine bright now

But for me this town stays golden, even when it's gray

I'm not saying goodbye, just that we grow apart

That doesn't mean our ghosts can't stay close in my heart

Chorus

We're leaving winter on the highway lines

The slow fade out of this old town's signs

Same old sun, same old dust and time

Only the shadows know that I still remember you like a rhyme

We're letting go but we won't forget

Every sunset here is still a little bit we made yet
