Verse 1
We touched, we burned, a night I can’t forget (oh-oh)
Every laugh, every whisper, every silhouette
I pulled back, tried to hide the fire in me
Leaving soon, I couldn’t stay, had to set you free (ahh)
Pre-Chorus
I can’t explain the way my chest still aches
Every glance you give him, my pulse breaks
I wanted you close, but I had to go
Now I’m haunted by the words I couldn’t show
Chorus
Faded sparks, we left in the dark (ooh-oh)
I wanted more, but I fell apart
You’re here, but you’re not for me (not for me)
Tension hangs where we used to be
Faded sparks, can’t turn back time (ahh)
Your hand in his, but I’m left behind
Verse 2
Every smile you give, I feel it in my chest
I want to pull you close, but I know what’s best
Your lips, your skin, replay in my mind
I left to protect you, now I’m left behind
Pre-Chorus
I can’t explain the way my heart still bleeds
Every laugh, every touch, it plants the seeds
Of something I can’t have, something I can’t hold
A story unfinished, a truth left cold
Chorus
Faded sparks, we left in the dark (ooh-oh)
I wanted more, but I fell apart
You’re here, but you’re not for me (not for me)
Tension hangs where we used to be
Faded sparks, can’t turn back time (ahh)
Your hand in his, but I’m left behind
Bridge
I see you laugh, I see you smile,
But I had to leave, I can’t stay awhile
I crave your touch, I crave your fire,
But I’m a ghost in the life you require
*(“oh… oh…”) *
Final Chorus
Faded sparks, we burned too bright (oh-oh)
I wanted you, but I ran from the fight
You’re here, but you’re not for me (not for me)
Tension thick where we used to be
Faded sparks, I can’t rewind (ahh)
Your hand in his, I’m left behind
Outro
Faded sparks… I had to go…
Leaving you… but I loved you so…
