I'll Fade Away - Mark Bryan

I was stuck at Sticky’s on a Friday in July

All my friends were somewhere else

They never wondered why

A crowded table near me

Was probably feeling tight

So I stayed in the corner

And I think I drank all night

The less that you can see me

The less I have to say

But if it’s up to me I’ll fade away

I was reminiscing with the one that got away

But my heart just dropped

And my mouth just stopped

There was nothing else to say

I could see right through her

As the truth fell from the sky

And the walls around came crashing down

And the future drifted by

The more that you can see me

The less I have to say

But if it’s up to me I’ll fade away

More than one way to skin a dog

You say who’s had his day

So take my hand and come

With me and we’ll fade away

Raindrops on the windshield

Headlights in your eyes

In another lonely city

On another sleepless night

The more that you see through me

The less I have to say

But if it’s up to me, I’ll fade away
