Fading Like a Flower

In a time
where the sun descends alone,
I ran a long long way from home
to find a heart that's made of stone.
I will try, I just need a little time
to get your face right out of my mind,
to see the world through different eyes.

Every time I see you oh I try to hide away
but when we meet it seems I can't let go.
Every time you leave the room
I feel I'm fading like a flower.

Tell me why?
when I scream there's no reply,
when I reach out there's nothing to find,
when I sleep I break down and cry.

Every time I see you oh I try to hide away
but when we meet it seems I can't let go.
Every time you leave
the room I feel I'm fading like a flower.

Fading like a rose,
Fading like a rose,
beaten by the storm,
talking to myself,
getting washed by the rain,
it's such a cold cold town.
