  • You say you love me
    Well they feel like words to me
    Well this just ain't working
    Stop thinking you can run over me
    I'm drifting, I'm settling
    Off to a foreign place
    If I can't see what's in front of me
    It's a mystery, well then apparently

    Things just ain't the same
    And I'm ready for change
    Go on, be gone, bye bye, so long
    Can't you see that you're
    Fading, fading, fading, fading away
    Away, away, away, away
    I opened up my eyes, and I finally realized
    Today, today, it's too late
    You're fading away

    Put a sock in it, just stop running your mouth
    Got my mind made up, I ain't coming back again
    No way, no way, no way, no way
    'Cause I'm so fed up, boy, you got me messed up
    If we hookin' back up, don't press your luck today, today
    I'm blowing you away

    Things just ain't the same
    And I'm ready for change
    Go on, be gone, ta-ta, so long
    Can't you see that you're
    Fading, fading, fading, fading away
    Away, away, away, away
    I opened up my eyes, and I finally realized
    Today, today, it's too late
    You're fading away

    Saw you turn into a ghost right in front of my eyes
    Tell me, what's a girl to do when she's crying inside?
    I'm about to go insane
    I'm jumping off this train
    Whether wrong or right, I'll be gone by night

    Can't you see that you're
    Fading, fading, fading, fading away
    Away, away, away, away
    I opened up my eyes, and I finally realized
    Today, today, it's too late
    You're fading away Writer/s: Alex Gazaway, Darnell Dalton, Darnello Dalton, Jamal Jones, Lamar Taylor, Quintin Amey, William Hodge, William Hodge Jr.
