It started in the daylight
With your arms like silhouettes
Oh, and I wish you'd never leave me
Maybe you never would
Now it's nothing but the streetlights
They glow like stars and cigarettes
Oh and I wish I'd never change
But here baby I go again
And how could I know
Well I'm gonna ride this out
Before I go
I said I'm tired
I'm out on my own
So I'll send you a letter, to say I'm coming back home
But I've changed, it's strange
And time's a wasting away, my friend
You said I'd miss you
I know that you're right
And I want you to love me, in my bed tonight
So have a drink, and we'll think about
Trying it one more
Time again 'til we're blown apart
Like lonely people who dance when the lights go dark again
We were walking in the street last night
I opened my mouth but nothing came
Oh and I guess you never knew me
Maybe you never would
Now I can hardly see right
Obscured by scars and pretty things
Oh and you tried to be the same
But I'd change with you if I could
And don't you want me to stay
I've got a bottle for the night and I ain't felt right for days
I said I'm tired
I'm out on my own
So I'll send you a letter, to say I'm coming back home
But I've changed, it's strange
And time's a wasting away, my friend
You said I'd miss you
I know that you're right
And I want you to love me, in my bed tonight
So have a drink, and we'll think about
Trying it one more
Time again for our lonely hearts
And all the people can dance, 'cause the lights went dark again
Oh and the sun has set
You were waiting on someone but he never came
So you run and you run to catch up, but you're sinking
Oh my love don't fade away
Oh my love don't fade away
Oh my love don't fade away
Oh my love don't fade away
