Fading Out Along the Fenceline（版本 2）

Verse

Fifty miles of blacktop rolling by like a snake through the sun

Picked you up from that diner down on Route 5 where the neon still glows in your eyes

You were sipping coffee and I was turning left out into the open road

You said, 'I've been waiting here, I don't think we're done yet

And then the sky turned red behind us like it always does when summer's losing breath

Pre-Chorus

So what's holding you back from saying goodbye?

Is it me or something we couldn't catch and name?

Hold on to that question, honey, keep it tight

I'm not asking for a promise, just a little more light

Chorus

Fading out along the fenceline, fading out of sight

You said we'd chase this sunset till it died

Now the fire's burning low and your hand is slipping free

But I still believe in us like a sunrise in the sea

Fading out but I won't let go

I won't lose you when I don't know if you're done yet or not

Verse

County fair tonight with sugar-coated everything

You grabbed my elbow through the crowded aisles where the cotton candy spins

We talked about starting something that wouldn't fade

But by the Ferris wheel the shadows were already in our shade

I took your hand through the ticket gates, I said we'd ride it slow

You laughed and said 'not me' and then you kissed me on the jaw

Pre-Chorus

So what's holding you back from saying goodbye?

Is it me or something we couldn't catch and name?

Hold on to that question, honey, keep it tight

I'm not asking for a promise, just a little more light

Chorus

Fading out along the fenceline, fading out of sight

You said we'd chase this sunset till it died

Now the fire's burning low and your hand is slipping free

But I still believe in us like a sunrise in the sea

Fading out but I won't let go

I won't lose you when I don't know if you're done yet or not

Bridge

Maybe we were never chasing stars at all

Maybe we just wanted something that wouldn't turn to dust

We found our own constellation instead, one we made of the light

And even if it's fading out along this road tonight

I still believe in what I saw shining through your eyes

Not a promise, not forever

Just a little more time

Chorus

Fading out along the fenceline, fading out of sight

You said we'd chase this sunset till it died

Now the fire's burning low and your hand is slipping free

But I still believe in us like a sunrise in the sea

Fading out but I won't let go

I won't lose you when I don't know if you're done yet or not
