(Verse 1) The clock ticks slow, as shadows grow, I watch the world move while I stand alone. Your voice still lingers, but it feels so far, Like a memory fading, like a dying star. (Pre-Chorus) I reach for you in the empty air, But all I touch is the weight of despair. Time is cruel, and distance is cold, And all we have now are stories we’ve told. (Chorus) Fading in the distance, like the setting sun, I wait for the moment when I’ll feel you come. But the miles between us are stronger than before, And my heart keeps breaking as I long for more. Fading in the distance, where love used to be, I’m holding on tight, but you’re slipping from me. (Verse 2) The nights are longer, the silence deep, I dream of you, but I can’t even sleep. I close my eyes, see your face in the dark, But when I open them, it’s just a broken spark. (Pre-Chorus) I send my words across the sky, But they get lost, they don’t make it by. The more I try, the more I can see, The further you are, the further from me. (Chorus) Fading in the distance, like the setting sun, I wait for the moment when I’ll feel you come. But the miles between us are stronger than before, And my heart keeps breaking as I long for more. Fading in the distance, where love used to be, I’m holding on tight, but you’re slipping from me. (Bridge) If I could hold the hands of time, I’d turn them back, I’d make you mine. But the distance pulls and the darkness grows, And all that’s left is this love that still glows. (Chorus) Fading in the distance, like the setting sun, I wait for the moment when I’ll feel you come. But the miles between us are stronger than before, And my heart keeps breaking as I long for more. Fading in the distance, where love used to be, I’m holding on tight, but you’re slipping from me. (Outro) Fading in the distance, you’re just out of reach, And I’m left here, alone on this quiet beach. But I’ll love you forever, though the end is near, And I’ll carry your memory, year after year.
