Faded Away

Faded Away I don't remember much about that time Just the smell of the air and your hand in mine Riding the strip, sitting on my lap In the back of the truck with the only friends I had It was spring break, we were out late And I thought goodness, for heaven's sake When I saw you And then I kissed you On a balcony over the sun In a chair by the rail, high above everyone We made love as the waves rolled in And we owned that town for one weekend Like the tan on my skin, our names in the sand Like the sound of the boat Starting up, heading out of the bay Girl you faded away I still taste the shots on your lips that night And the smoke from the club still burns my eyes Feel of your body taking off your dress Waking up that morning in a tangled mess So if I would have known, I would have held on A little bit longer and stronger with nothing to lose Cause I still see you On a balcony over the sun In a chair by the rail, high above everyone We made love as the waves rolled in And we owned that town for one weekend Like the tan on my skin, our names in the sand Like the sound of the boat Starting up, heading out of the bay Girl you (girl you) (Faded) faded away On a balcony over the sun In a chair by the rail, high above everyone I watched you drive through the gate Without saying the words I needed to say Like the tan on my skin, our names in the sand Like the tears on your face And the sun going down that day Girl you faded away You faded away
