Fell in love in high school With a brown haired, green eyed girl I walked her home almost everyday Held her hand, I held the world We made our plan to run away I couldn't wait to share her life We started countin down the days She couldn't wait to be my wife
I got a job and bought a car I turned 18 that spring By summer had my own place And I bought my baby's ring Fell in with the wrong crowd Breakin laws, I broke her heart By autumn, was in handcuffs Baby's cryin out in her front yard And that's what hurt the most I saw it in her green eyes She had seen a ghost
My mama saw me every week Tried her hardest not to cry She told me that she loved me Disappointment in her eyes I said, "Mama, I love you too, I'm gonna make you proud one day" A month before I got out They told me mama passed away
And that's what hurt the most I saw it in her sad eyes, her son was a ghost I hate this life I chose Long before she died, her son was a ghost Now I got my freedom But it feels like emptiness In front of the apartment Where your sister says you live And there's another man, who fills my empty shoes And darlin you don't see me But you know that I see you, I drift off...
I'm gonna fade away Beyond the city lights I'm gonna fade away Through the emty night I'm gonna fade away Drifting out of your life I wanna fade away Through the empty night
I'm gonna fade away Beyond the city lights I'm gonna fade away Through the emty night I'm gonna fade away
