Fade Away

(album: Ricks Road - 1993)

With every little smile do you know me better
You know I'm never what I seem
Cause I don't worry about the future
My days they pass just like a dream
Are you scared of what you're seeing
Does it make me seem so cruel
And now I'll ask you if I hurt you
That's just something that I do
If you don't listen to me
You'll stay the same
And you're just gonna fade away
Listen hear the secret in my voice
Are you so gone that you can't hear
Scared I've forgot you for no reason
Maybe that's what you can't bear
Then give me more than words and gestures
Give me something I can keep
That's how you get to love forever
That's why you've gotta try and see
If you don't listen to me
You'll stay the same
If you don't listen to me
You'll stay the same
If you don't listen to me
You'll stay the same
And you'll fade away
