VERSE:

Is it time?

Time for the moving on

Show me a sign,

Tell me you’re holding on

You say that you hear me

But I don’t believe it’s true

I can see it in your eyes

But our thoughts are misconstrued

I’ve said it a thousand times

And I’ll say it a thousand more

I’ve loved you from the first time

Now I love you even more

Please don’t fade,

Fade away

Please don’t fade,

Fade away

To hold on to the days

When everything was promised

And we’d always find a way

To hold on to each other

And dwell within the light

Now all the sky is clouded

And day has turned to night

Please don’t fade,

Fade away

Please don’t fade,

Fade away

Hold on to tomorrow

And we’ll count our lucky stars
