Fade
Forty-two Lyrics

You see the light grow dim
The passion and love in the relationship is slowly fading away

Go ahead and let it fade
Accept the fading of the love and let it happen

Levitate
Rise above the situation and let it be

You gotta let it fade
It's necessary to let the love fade away

When the loves all gone
When the love is completely gone

Don't trip just let it fade
Don't worry or stress, just let it go

Fade away
The love needs to fade away

We need to let it fade
It's important for both parties to let the love fade away

We fought from dusk til dawn
The couple fought constantly

But now it's getting late
It's time to make a decision and move on from the relationship

I wanna stay
The singer wants to stay in the relationship

But you won't let it fade away
The other person is not willing to let the love fade away

It's 3 o clock in the morning
The time of night when the singer is having this conversation

She says I hope it's important
The other person is annoyed at being woken up

I tell her sorry keep dozing
The singer apologizes for waking her up and suggests she go back to sleep

I shouldn't call without warning
The singer feels guilty for calling without warning

I tried to tell her I'm sorry
The singer apologizes multiple times

But she don't wanna hear stories
The other person does not want to hear excuses or stories

It's like we're speaking in foreign
Communication has become difficult and ineffective

Cause all she does is ignore me
The other person is ignoring the singer

Guess we've been going through it
The couple has been going through a rough patch

We'd fight for hours just to find out we were being stupid
The couple argues for hours over minor things

My heart's cold like December
The singer's heart is cold and unfeeling

Her mood swings like the weather
The other person's moods change frequently and unpredictably

She asks me if I'm chilling
The other person asks the singer if he is okay or relaxed

Say babe I'm never better so
The singer reassures the other person that he is fine

Let's take a seat and talk about this baby
The singer suggests that they have a conversation to work out their issues

I don't know what's gotten into us lately
The singer is unsure why their relationship has become so rocky

Who's to say if we gon' be alright
The singer is unsure if they will be okay as a couple

It's just a matter of time
The relationship will work itself out over time

Til' we turn out right
Until the relationship improves

And all the bad things
All the negative aspects of the relationship

We gon'
We will

Let 'em fade away
We must let them fade away

But what good is letting go
What is the point of letting go of something

If it don't go away
If it doesn't actually go away

But now
At this point in the relationship

My eyes open
The singer has a new perspective on the relationship

I must've dozed off of this potion
The singer may have been oblivious to the problems in the relationship

And I'm hoping
The singer hopes for improvement in the relationship

That we can get back to this heart felt emotion
The singer wants to return to the feeling of love in the relationship

That closeness
The emotional closeness of the relationship

The thing we seem to have forgotten
The couple has lost sight of their emotional connection

It's kinda dark down at the bottom
The relationship is at a low point

I wanna push to start our problems
The singer wants to work on their problems and make the relationship better

But nah
But maybe that's not possible

I turned the key to your heart
The singer tried to fix the relationship

And you ignited the spark
The other person reciprocated the singer's efforts

But now we're frozen in park
The relationship is stuck and not progressing

I think it's torn us apart
The state of the relationship has damaged both people

It's kinda late to restart
It may be too late to fix the relationship

I never thought that this could break us baby
The singer never imagined that their problems could ruin the relationship

It's getting late and this is making me crazy
The situation is becoming intolerable for the singer

It's okay to say we're not alright
It's okay to admit that they are not doing well as a couple

Before we fight all night
The couple will argue for a long time

And all the good things
The positive aspects of the relationship

That get us through the day
The things that make the relationship worth it

I don't want us to let go
The singer doesn't want to end the relationship

So let's just fade away
The best course of action may be to let the relationship fade away slowly
