Fading Memory
I lit up your ghost again
The flames made it all the way to you
We tried to make the lights grow dim
Just like we did when we were 16
Took your heart, you took deep breaths
A tale we filled with paintings of our firsts
Made it timeless, yet naive
A love wrapped the way it's always meant to be
A worn out face wrote down a song
About the time he danced alone
These old steps won't mend a soul
The song has cried its last breath out
As I grab you by the hand
July's 13th dies in the night
The show is done
The crowd is going home
Everyone here knows we're on our own
Just stand still
Kiss me goodnight and see
That somewhere down the line this night will be
A fading memory
The jester tried to find a way to make up for
All the times he'd laugh no more
His queen's moved on, but has made time to get paid for
All the times she begged for what was gone
The show is done
The crowd is going home
Everyone here knows we're on our own
Just stand still
Kiss me goodnight and see
That somewhere down the line this night will be
A fading memory
The flames made it all the way to you
We tried to make the lights grow dim
Just like we did when we were 16
Took your heart, you took deep breaths
A tale we filled with paintings of our firsts
Made it timeless, yet naive
A love wrapped the way it's always meant to be
A worn out face wrote down a song
About the time he danced alone
These old steps won't mend a soul
The song has cried its last breath out
As I grab you by the hand
July's 13th dies in the night
The show is done
The crowd is going home
Everyone here knows we're on our own
Just stand still
Kiss me goodnight and see
That somewhere down the line this night will be
A fading memory
The jester tried to find a way to make up for
All the times he'd laugh no more
His queen's moved on, but has made time to get paid for
All the times she begged for what was gone
The show is done
The crowd is going home
Everyone here knows we're on our own
Just stand still
Kiss me goodnight and see
That somewhere down the line this night will be
A fading memory
