Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I seem to recognize your face

Haunting familiar, yet I can't seem to place it

Cannot find the candle of thought to light your name

Lifetimes are catchin' up with me

All these changes takin' place

I wish I'd seen the place, but no one's ever taken me

[Verse 2]

Hearts and thoughts, they fade, fade away

Hearts and thoughts, they fade, fade away

[Verse 3]

I swear I recognize your breath

Oh, memories, like fingerprints, are slowly raisin'

Me, you wouldn't recall, for I'm not my former

It's hard when you're stuck upon the shelf

Oh, I changed by not changin' at all

Small town predicts my fate

Perhaps that's what no one wants to see

[Verse 4]

I just wanna scream, "Hello

Oh my God, it's been so long

Never dreamed you'd return

But now here you are and here I am"

Hearts and thoughts, they fade away

[Verse 5]

Hearts and thoughts, they fade away

Hearts and thoughts, they fade, fade away

Hearts and thoughts, they fade, oh, away

Hearts and thoughts, they fade, fade away

They fade

Fade away
