Fade Away - Francis Dunnery

She said my shoes were cheap and my clothes were all outdated

She stopped me drinking beer and gave me wine

But I can’t hide from what I am just an ordinary man

Trying to make it through the day

As I watch our love so slowly fade away

Like a flower

She said my friends were fools and she won’t talk to my brother

She made me sit there and talk to her friends

But I can see it their eyes, they are frowning as they smile

And I didn’t have much to say

I just watch our love so slowly fade away

Like a flower

I watch our love so ever slowly fade

Like the summertime

Like the honesty you promised me would stay

She said I gotta change my ways or she’s leaving me tommorrow

I said get out of here, leave me alone

And she came crying to my door

Said she liked me as before

But I had a price to pay

Cos at last our love could finally fade away

Like a flower
