“Fade Away” is the first single from Ten Love Songs, about alternating between being in and out of love.
It’s poppier than some of her earlier work, being 80’s-influenced electro-pop, but her vocal layering techniques remain.
[Verse 1]
This is the sound of your heart
The sound of your heart, it sounds lonely
I think we're drifting apart
We're drifting apart ever so slowly
[Chorus]
Fade away
Fade away, my love
Fade away
Till you're out of sight
Out of sight
[Verse 2]
This is the sound of my heart
The sound of my heart, it sounds of me
It feels like I'm falling apart
I'm falling apart ever so slowly
[Chorus 2]
(I've got to)
Fade away
Fade away, my love
(I've got to)
Fade away
Till I'm out of sight
Out of sight
[Bridge 1]
This is the kind of love that never goes out of style
'Cause baby, I know that you'll always be waiting
And I’ll always want to come back
[Instrumental Interlude]
[Bridge 2]
This is the kind of love that never goes out of style
'Cause baby, I know that I'll always be waiting
And you'll always want to come back
[Chorus 3]
Oh let us fade away
Fade away, my love
(We're gonna)
Fade away
Till we're out of sight
Out of sight
