The Sun Fades the Color of Everything

(Mary Gauthier) We lie here and we lie here Awaiting the return Of the passion that has left us With the patience we've learned Sinking in the ashes Of the red night's final swing The sun fades the color of everything We lie here and we lie here Without much to say In our silent sanctuary We call it a day Seasons change quietly Winter whispers Spring The sun fades the color of everything Me and you, we wait it out It might be 'round the bend Every time we think it's gone It comes back again We hold on to each other But to our faith we cling The sun fades the color of everything We lie here and we lie here Waiting for a sign You follow yours And I follow mine Sleeping with our backs turned Floating off on polished wings The sun fades the color of everything Me and you, we wait it out It might be 'round the bend Every time we think it's gone It comes back again We hold on to each other But to our faith we cling
