Faded Splendor (feat. Donovan Woods)

All the empires that came to an end

All the church bells that won't ring again

All the ruins still get visited

For their faded splendor

All the pictures face-down in a drawer

All the words that we don't say no more

All the things you used to love me for

I remember

Something that beautiful

Never goes away

It's all faded

Splendor

All wasted

Time

Started building a foundation

That would hold us for the rest of our lives

Yeah, we tried

A shining city in the distance

Only we know it existed

Could've been the greatest love of my whole life

Now it's all faded

Splendor

You and I

You and I (Oh)

You and I

Every sunset that we've ever seen

Never lasted long enough for me

I wanna feel the warmth a little more

I wanna show up some night at your door

I wanna talk about the way it was

And what about us wasn't good enough?

It's all faded

Splendor

All wasted

Time

Started building a foundation

That would hold us for the rest of our lives

Yeah, we tried

A shining city in the distance

Only we know it existed

Could've been the greatest love of my whole life

Now it's all faded

Splendor

You and I (Oh)

You and I (Oh)

You and I

Something that beautiful

Never goes away

Something that beautiful

Never goes away

It's all faded

Splendor

All wasted

Time

Started building a foundation

That would hold us for the rest of our lives

Yeah, we tried

A shiny city in the distance

Only we know it existed

Could've been the greatest love of my whole life

Now it's all faded

Splendor

You and I (Oh)

You and I (Oh)

You and I
