Fading Light

Verse 1:

I see you laughing in the hallway glow

With someone else, the way I wish I could know

Your shadow dances in the sunset sky

And I’m just standing here, asking why

Pre-Chorus:

Every little thing reminds me of your face

I try to move on, but I’m stuck in this place

Chorus:

You’re the star I can’t reach, the song I can’t sing

The warmth in the room I’ll never feel again

I fade into the night, I fade into the light

Wishing I could be the one you’d hold tight

Verse 2:

I wear a smile, but it’s just pretend

While you and them, your world, it bends

I trace the words you’ll never say

And feel the colors slowly drain away

Pre-Chorus:

Every little thing reminds me of your face

I try to move on, but I’m stuck in this place

Chorus:

You’re the star I can’t reach, the song I can’t sing

The warmth in the room I’ll never feel again

I fade into the night, I fade into the light

Wishing I could be the one you’d hold tight

Bridge:

Maybe one day I’ll let it go

Stop chasing shadows, stop feeling so low

But tonight, I’m lost in your glow

In the silence where no one knows

Chorus (softly, fading):

You’re the star I can’t reach, the song I can’t sing

The warmth in the room I’ll never feel again

I fade into the night, I fade into the light

Wishing I could be the one you’d hold tight
