Fade With the Night

You moved through the smoke and colored lights

Heartbeat syncing with the strobe tonight

You smiled like you knew me from before

But we were just shadows wanting more

You said, “don’t let this feeling go”

But I knew I’d never stay, I’d never show

Still I danced like I believed

In a dream that we could keep

Let me fade with the night

Like a star in your sky

I was never meant to stay

Just a spark, then goodbye

Let me fade with the night

One more kiss, one more high

We’ll forget by morning light

But for now—let’s believe the lie

Fade, fade, fade with the night…

Yeah we burn, then we’re gone, out of sight

Fade… fade with the night

I see the truth behind your eyes

We’re both here chasing empty highs

But the music makes it feel so real

So we dance just to not feel

You hold on like it’s forever

But I’m smoke, not something you tether

Still I give you all of me

In this midnight fantasy

Let me fade with the night

Like the tide in the sky

We were flames for a while

Now we’re falling behind

Let me fade with the night

Don’t ask reasons or why

We were perfect for this beat

Not a lifetime, just tonight

Ooooh… (Let me go…)

Ooooh… (Fade with the night…)

Hold me close, don’t ask me to stay

We were never made to last this way

Fade with the night

Let me slip from your mind

We were fire on the floor

Now just echoes in time

Fade with the night

And when morning is bright

You’ll remember the light

But I’ll be out of sight

Fade… fade with the night…

Don’t look back…

We were only sparks in the black
