Cold Tide - Fade Lyrics

You're like the weather to a stone
You wore me right down to the bone
And I still feel this fire in you
It's every intention burns true, true
Cause this is who you are
Not who you were meant to be
Of all the choices that you made
You never chose to set me free

In my sleep I still call your name
Feel the familiar touch I just can't explain
Just a memory, seen so vividly
No not a trace, not a chance to flicker or fade
It's not in what you give, but what you gave
There's no certainty, in what we were meant to be

I'd been searching so long, searching so long
For what I was after, now that is gone, now that is gone
Don't get carried away, carried away
An overreaction, the perfect distraction that's what you'd say
What's it like to be alone
Your secrets were all yours to keep
Each decision was your own
You made each one so carelessly
Now it's obvious to know
It is oh so plain to see
That you always had control
With each finger wrapped right round me

In my sleep I still call your name
Feel the familiar touch I just can't explain
Just a memory, seen so vividly
No not a trace, not a chance to flicker or fade
It's not in what you give, but what you gave
There's no certainty, in what we were meant to be

Another chance that we're willing to take
Another choice to make this mistake
Just understand there's not much left of me
For in my heart you still hold the key

In my sleep I still call your name
Feel the familiar touch I just can't explain
Just a memory, seen so vividly
No not a trace, not a chance to flicker or fade
It's not in what you give, but what you gave
There's no certainty, in what we were meant to be
