Fade Into The Dark

(album: Field Notes, Vol. 3 - 2022)

One, two, one two three four

Hotel bars in broke-down Colorado
Thinking 'bout that girl I should've kissed
Well, I really hope to hell that she is doing well
And I'm sorry for all the things I've missed

But if you keep waiting on a miracle cure
You're gonna die
If you keep hoping on a prayer
Life gonna pass you by
Maybe I'm not the one to talk
But baby, I've given it all I've got
And I'm not gonna fade into the dark

Almost found the dream in Tuscaloosa
But I had to give her up when I traveled on
Well, even to this day, I know I shouldn't stay
At least she went and left me with a soul

But if you keep waiting on a miracle cure
You're gonna die
If you keep hoping on a prayer
Life gonna pass you by
Maybe I'm not the one to talk
But baby, I've given it all I've got
And I'm not gonna fade into the dark

Hey, New York, I know I shoulda called you
I just been waiting on this to end
Well, maybe it looks like fun, living my life on the run
When I get home, we can learn to talk again

But if you keep waiting on a miracle cure
You're gonna die
If you keep hoping on a prayer
Life gonna pass you by
Maybe I'm not the one to talk
But baby, I've given it all I've got
And I'm not gonna fade into the dark
No, I'm not gonna fade into the dark
