I know the time has come when you must step aside
And I hope you see that these were some of the best days of our lives
We've seen the good times fade and just get tossed away
And if I could reach you now I'd say don't feel that you're to blame
Cos we have wandered oh so many nights
And I've wondered if you've reached the other side
We're not quite there, and I don't need to be alone cos I'm not scared
Of the tragedy it's sewn it wastes away
And it fades away
And it fades away
Sometimes I lie and think of all the sleepless nights
And it brings a fragile smile that's helped me through the darkened days
Somehow we all lose sight in its simplicity
But you're now a part of me and I will always feel the same
Cos we have wandered oh so many nights
And I've wondered if you've reached the other side
We're not quite there, and I don't need to be alone cos I'm not scared
Of the tragedy it's sewn it wastes away
And it fades away
And it fades away
Cos we have wandered oh so many nights
And I've wondered if you've reached the other side
We're not quite there, sometimes I need to be alone cos I'm so scared
Of the tragedy it's sewn it wastes away, and I go on to face the day
But it fades away, yeah
And it fades away
