i know it's too late
and you want me to go
i didn't realize
but then i didn't know
you cry yourself to sleep
i couldn't see your tears
i was deaf and blind and had been that way for years
there's nothing i can do
'cause when i look at you
i wanna fade away
i need to fade away
i know that it's true
together we are through
so let me fade away
just let me fade away
you want me to go
and i know it's too late
i wish that we could talk
but there's nothing to debate
i couldn't hear your pain
i was deaf and blind tonight
i'll cry myself to sleep
because the pain is mine
there's nothing i can do
'cause when i look at you
i wanna fade away
i need to fade away
i know that it's true
together we are through
so let me fade away
just let me fade away
you cry yourself to sleep
i couldn't see your tears
i was deaf and blind
and had been that way for years
i couldn't hear your pain
i was deaf and blind tonight
i'll cry myself to sleep
because the pain is mine
there's nothing i can do
'cause when i look at you
i wanna fade away
i need to fade away
i know that it's true
together we are through
so let me fade away
just let me fade away
