**Verse 1:**
The room grows cold, the light grows dim
I'm counting all the might-have-beens
Should've held her closer when I had the chance
Should've said I'm sorry, should've asked to dance

The years roll by like strangers passing through
All the dreams I left for someday never knew
That someday never comes when you're always waiting
For the perfect time that keeps on hesitating

**Chorus:**
Now I'm standing at the edge of everything
With empty hands and words I'll never sing
The weight of all I didn't do or say
Is heavier than living ever weighed
If I could turn back all the sands of time
I'd love a little harder, live a little wide
But the fading light don't lie
Oh, the fading light don't lie

**Verse 2:**
I built my walls so high and strong
But kept the right ones out too long
Chased the money, missed the moments worth the gold
Now I'm rich in regrets and my heart's grown old

Those photographs of chances that I passed
Now they're all that's left, and they're fading fast
My children's eyes once looked at me with wonder
Now I see the distance that I put us under

**Chorus:**
Now I'm standing at the edge of everything
With empty hands and words I'll never sing
The weight of all I didn't do or say
Is heavier than living ever weighed
If I could turn back all the sands of time
I'd love a little harder, live a little wide
But the fading light don't lie
Oh, the fading light don't lie

**Bridge:**
I see their faces like a film unwinding
All the people I kept on reminding
Tomorrow, later, not today
And tomorrow came and slipped away

**Final Chorus:**
Now I'm standing at the edge of alone
Reaching for a life I should've known
The weight of all I didn't do or say
Is all I'll carry when I fade away
If you can hear me on the other side
Don't wait, don't waste it, just open your eyes
'Cause the fading light don't lie
No, the fading light won't lie

**Outro:**
The room grows still, the light grows thin
I'm letting go of what could've been
But if my story finds its way to you
Don't let regret be what you're holding to
