Everything Fades from Colours by The May Dolls

you look at me
in the evening gloom
the words are left in their hollow cocoon
we draw up plans
and count up the days
the years roll by and still we are waiting

for that ship to come
and carry the weight of this home
take us to another place
but everything fades

I look at you
when the sun meets the sky
holding you in the light of my eyes
we box our dreams
and we stack them up high
taking our time to get it just right

will that ship come?
and carry the weight of this home
take us to another place
but everything fades

everything fades in the passing of time
we won’t let anything pass us by
hold on to me tightly and we can we can survive

why don’t we
climb up high
to the hills at dawn watch the morning rise

let that ship pass us by
it’s gone in the blink of an eye
let’s stay for a while in this place
where nothing fades
