Fade Away
Aza Nabuko Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's been gone a million years
The taste of lemonade, and sugar sweet youth
And time and time again, a seed turned to a tree,
The lips of mine and yours, you and me
But I always felt so small, and with you I stood tall
I want you, all I want is you
The air changed, I couldn't breathe
Without you standing next to me,
The wind blew you away, along with our memories-
And now my days are gray
Ever since you walked away
Now all I have left to say is goodbye
But I always felt so small,
And with you I stood tall
I want you,
All I want is you.
The air changed, I couldn't breathe
Without you standing next to me
The wind blew you away, along with our memories
And I watched you fade away
And I watched you fade
You look me in the eye and tell me you loved me
You loved me, loved me, used to love me
You ran away, you ran so fast away
And you vanished to the storm of your mind
All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you
And I watched you Fade Away
Ooooh Fade away
And I watched you fade away
And I watched you fade

I still remember your smile
Even though it's been a long time, I still vividly remember the way you used to smile
It's been gone a million years
It has been a very long time since you were last here
The taste of lemonade, and sugar sweet youth
I reminisce about the good old days, enjoying the taste of lemonade and the carefree spirit of our youth
And time and time again, a seed turned to a tree, The lips of mine and yours, you and me
We have shared many experiences together, watching things grow and exploring each other's company with our lips locked in love
But I always felt so small, and with you I stood tall
Although I lack self confidence, being with you made me feel like I can accomplish anything and taller than my fears
I want you, all I want is you
I desire nothing more than to have you by my side
The air changed, I couldn't breathe Without you standing next to me, The wind blew you away, along with our memories-
After you left, everything felt different and I could barely get by without you. The wind carried away not just you, but also the memories of our time together
And now my days are grey, Ever since you walked away, Now all I have left to say is goodbye
My life lost its luster since you left and I only have one final word to say to you - goodbye
And I watched you fade away
I helplessly watched you leave and disappear from my life
And you vanished to the storm of your mind
I know that you struggled with your own inner turmoil that led you to leave without warning
You look me in the eye and tell me you loved me, You loved me, loved me, used to love me
I remember when you were still here with me, looking into my eyes and expressing your feelings of love towards me
You ran away, you ran so fast away
You left me behind without a word, running away at an incredible speed
All I wanted was you
All I ever wanted was to have you in my life
And I watched you Fade Away Ooooh Fade away And I watched you fade away And I watched you fade
The hurt of watching you leave never goes away and it feels like I am slowly losing you forever
