Who's got time for faded words   There's nothin' new we haven't heard   I wish to hell that I could tell the truth   From all the lies we keep inside   Behind closed doors   Inside our minds   I pray to heaven, save us from ourselves   Well, here I am   Another day   A lifetime's past since yesterday   Still I am no farther than before   Through all the roads and paths we walked   Endless nights alone we talked   Those miles will never mean a thing      And I (I) never thought we had a chance   So you (you) you should fly away, and I will fade       Sometimes life can be so hard   You do your best and still you're scarred   I like you better than myself   And on this point we disagree   You give your love, you're never free   For, break your heart is somethin' I couldn't help      And I (I) never thought we had a chance   So you (you) you should fly away (fly away) and I will fade (and I will fade)      Have you got time for faded words   I've somethin' here you haven't heard   Wish to hell I could of told the truth   Well, there's all these words I couldn't say   A lifetime's past and gone away   Still I am no farther than before      And I (I) I think that maybe we had our chance   So you (you) you flew away, so I will fade (I will fade)   I will fade   You flew away   So I will fade   I will fade
