Verse 1]
Golden light through our window, soft and low
Years in the walls of this home we know
Pictures hanging, stories told
Laugh lines deeper than growing old
Your hand in mine, a steady place
Even time can’t erase your face
[Pre-Chorus]
We’ve felt the weight of days gone wrong
But somehow we kept holding on
Through every high, through every low
We learned what it means to grow
[Chorus]
We’re fading with the sunset, side by side
Not running from it, not trying to hide
What we are, it don’t burn out with the light
It just changes with the night
We were fire, now we’re silhouettes
But there’s love we ain’t finished with yet
We’re fading with the sunset… still us
[Verse 2]
Long days, late nights, bills to pay
Kids to raise, and dreams delayed
Somewhere between the stress and tears
We lost a little, found more through the years
Your eyes still hold that quiet truth
Through every storm, I chose you
[Pre-Chorus]
And the silence ain’t empty now
It’s peace we learned to live without
The loud young love we used to chase
Turned into something time can’t replace
[Chorus]
We’re fading with the sunset, side by side
Not running from it, not trying to hide
What we are, it don’t burn out with the light
It just changes with the night
We were fire, now we’re silhouettes
But there’s love we ain’t finished with yet
We’re fading with the sunset… still us
[Bridge]
Yeah, we bent but we didn’t break
Through every promise we chose to make
And even when the sky turns gray
I’d choose you every single day
If this is what forever means
Then I’m right where I’m supposed to be
[Break – Soft]
Oh… the light goes down, but we remain
Through every loss, through every gain
[Final Chorus – Bigger / Emotional]
We’re fading with the sunset, hand in hand
Every scar part of our plan
All the years painted in the sky
Every tear, every reason why
We were fire, now we’re silhouettes
But our love ain’t over yet
We’re fading with the sunset… still us
[Outro]
And when the night calls out our names
We’ll be more than what time can change
In every dusk, I’ll see it clear…
Even fading… you’re still here**
