Fade Away
Embracing Love's Fragile Moments
Lyrics
Day by day
Expressing the passage of time.
I feel you slip away
Feeling the gradual distancing or detachment.
Like holding grains of sand
Metaphor for the fragile nature of the relationship.
In between my hands
Describing the attempt to grasp or hold onto the relationship.
They fall away
Highlighting the inevitability of things slipping away.
Don’t fall away
An urgent plea to prevent the detachment.
My greatest fear
Expressing a deep-seated fear.
Is the day when you won’t be here
Fearing the anticipated day of separation.
Losing you
Acknowledging the difficulty of facing the loss.
Is not something I can do
Stating incapability of coping with the loss.
Stay
An emotional plea for the person to remain.
Don’t let this change
Requesting to maintain the current state of the relationship.
Don’t fade away
Avoiding the fading or diminishing of the connection.
Stay
Reiterating the plea for the person to stay.
Stay
Emphasizing the importance of the person staying.
Don’t fade away
Reinforcing the desire to prevent fading away.
Night by night
Expressing concerns about losing time during the night.
I fear I’m losing time
Highlighting the urgency and pressure of time passing.
With you
Pleading for any action that can help salvage the relationship.
Is there anything I can do
Questioning if there's any way to hold onto the person.
To hold on to you?
Expressing the desperate need to keep the person close.
Can we save this?
Pondering the possibility of saving the relationship.
Can we save this?
Repeating the question, emphasizing the urgency of saving.
