Fade

I made a statue out of us
To prove that we would always be in love
But now it’s lonely in the park
No one even stops to wonder who we are

And the birds come by
To stay a while
On top of our stone smiles
Those ancient times
I don’t really know why
All good things must fade

I made a painting out of us
And filled it with the colors that we love
But I sold it sometime in the move
When you said I couldn’t stay with you

But when people walk by
In the gallery lights
I hope they see our lives
Through brand new eyes
Cuz I don’t really know why
All good things must fade

I found some photographs of us
Wrote on the back that we were happy once
And I tried to mail it to your house
But the mailman said that no one lives there now

And you’re not online
You left no signs
I guess that that’s just life
People float by
But I don’t really know why
All good things must fade
