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[Chorus 1]

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
