Faded Love
Leony! Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You left your ugly sweater
So that I can't forget ya
I'm so fed up when you're around, round, round, round

And when I'm feeling better
You always find a way to
Get in my head and bring me down, down, down
I tried and tried and tried, but I can't let go

So come set me free
I'm done feeling blue
I'm falling apart
A faded love

I'm counting to three
I hear the alarm
I'm falling apart
A faded love

Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Faded love, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

So come set me free
I'm done feeling blue
I'm falling apart
A faded love

I'm counting to three
I hear the alarm
I'm falling apart
A faded love

See you in different places
A room with thousand faces
You're like a ghost haunting me now, now, now, now

I can't forget your perfume
It all reminds me of you
Oh, will I ever make it out, out?

I tried and tried and tried, but I can't let go

So come set me free
I'm done feeling blue
I'm falling apart
A faded love

I'm counting to three
I hear the alarm
I'm falling apart
A faded love

Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Faded love, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

So come set me free
I'm done feeling blue
I'm falling apart
A faded love

I'm counting to three
I hear the alarm
I'm falling apart
A faded love

Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh




Faded love, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
