Fadeaway

Bailey Zimmerman

Compositor: Bailey Zimmerman

That flame blew out in a cross-fade wind
And I don't know if it'll get lit again
I watched your taillights fade in a red sunset
And now I'm tryin' like hell to try and forget
That

It's broken, you're long gone
Everythin' that coulda been, went wrong and
I tried, my best to hold on to what I could but you just slipped
Right outta my fingertips, right off of my lips
Swore everythin' would be okay
And you would never leave, you'd always stay
Then I watched you fade away

Nothin' hurts worse than a stovetop burn (Stovetop burn)
After the first time, you'd think I'd learn
That it was always gonna end like this
With a fell-short wish and it can't be fixed 'cause

It's broken, you're long gone
Everythin' that coulda been, went wrong and
I tried, my best to hold on to what I could but you just slipped
Right outta my fingertips, right off of my lips
Swore everythin' would be okay
And you would never leave, you'd always stay
Then I watched you fade away

Then I watched you fade away

Yeah, it was always gonna end like this
With a fell-short wish and it can't be fixed 'cause

It's broken, you're long gone
Everythin' that coulda been, went wrong and
I tried, my best to hold on to what I could but you just slipped
Right outta my fingertips, right off of my lips
Swore everythin' would be okay
And you would never leave, you'd always stay
Then I watched you fade away

Then I watched you fade away
Yeah it's broken, you're long gone
