Lyrics
Written by orbison/danzig
My time has come the clouds are calling.
December wind has came my way.
And now i feel the world falling.
All at once, it's too late.
Life fades away.
The night is my day.
All thoughts slip away
And even though, i must leave you.
Remember i love you.
I'll always be in your memories.
I will always be with you when i'm gone.
Hey, life fades away.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,yeah.
Life fades away.
I'm tired on tomorrow.lost for today.
I long to be at peace forever.
My dull peace
And even though, i will miss you.
I must leave you.
Hey, life fades away.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah,yeah, yeah.
Life fades away.
So please forgive me.and try not to cry.
I long to be at peace forever more.
Forever more.
Oh yeah, yeah , yeah ,yeah ,yeah.
Oh yeah, yeah ,yeah , yeah, yeah.
Life fades away.
Life fades away.
Life fades away.away.
One last thing to say
Life fades away.
