Lyrics

She said my shoes were cheap and my clothes were all outdated
She stopped me drinking beer and she gave me wine
But I can't hide from what I am: just an ordinary man
Trying to make it through the day
As I watch our love so slowly fade away
(Fade away)
Like a flower
She said my friends were fools and she won't talk to my brother
She made me sit there and talk to her friends
But I can see it their eyes, they are frowning as they smile
And I didn't have much to say
I just watched our love so slowly fade away
(Fade away)
Like a flower
I watched our love so ever slowly fade
(Fade away)
Like the summertime
Like the honesty you promised me would stay
She said I gotta change my ways or she's leaving me tommorrow
I said “Get out of here, leave me alone”
And she came crying to my door
Said she liked me as before
But she had a price to pay
Cuz at last our love could finally fade away
(Fade away)
Like a flower
I watched our love so ever slowly fade
(Fade away)
Like a flower
I watched our love die and go away
(Fade away)
Like a flower
I watched our love so ever slowly fade
(Fade away)
Like a summertime
I watched our love so ever slowly…
(Fade away)
