[Verse 1]
Bother me sometime, yeah boy
Don’t be stepping out alone, yeah boy
I can’t say that it won’t fall out but
We both know it'd be a lie if we left with no goodbye (Yeah)
[Pre-Chorus]
What you want from me?
Nothing left to say
Nothing left to say, ah baby
What you want from me?
Doing what it takes
Gonna run away
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah (Ooh)
Ah baby, baby (Ooh)
[Chorus]
I’m feeling high, yeah I’m feeling low
When you say goodbye I already know
I’m feeling faded
I’m feeling faded
I’m feeling high, yeah I’m feeling low
’Cause we out of time
We already know that we can’t fake it
I’m feeling faded (Ooh)
What you want from me?
Nothing left to say
Nothing left to say, ah baby
What you want from me?
Doing what it takes
Gonna run away
Oh baby, baby (Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, ooh)
I’m feeling faded
I’m feeling faded
[Verse 2]
You're not really my type, yeah boy
But you give me what I like, yeah boy
I've been waiting 'round the block for you
You're always running late
Why you gotta make me late? (Yeah)
[Pre-Chorus]
What you want from me?
Nothing left to say
Nothing left to say, ah baby
What you want from me?
Doing what it takes
Gonna run away
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah (Ooh)
Ah baby, baby (Ooh)
[Chorus]
I’m feeling high, yeah I’m feeling low
When you say goodbye I already know
I’m feeling faded
I’m feeling faded
I’m feeling high, yeah I’m feeling low
’Cause we out of time
We already know that we can’t fake it
I’m feeling faded (Ooh)
What you want from me?
Nothing left to say
Nothing left to say, ah baby
What you want from me?
Doing what it takes
Gonna run away
Oh baby, baby (Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, ooh)
I’m feeling faded
I’m feeling faded
[Bridge]
It’s getting late, getting late
Wanna stay, wanna stop the clock, yeah
Anyway, anyway, anyway
I can ru-un with ya
By the way, by the way, by the way
You got my heart in knots, yeah
I’m feeling, I’m feeling (Ooh)
[Chorus]
I’m feeling high, yeah I’m feeling low
When you say goodbye I already know
I’m feeling faded
I’m feeling faded
I’m feeling high, yeah I’m feeling low
’Cause we out of time
We already know that we can’t fake it
I’m feeling faded (Ooh)
What you want from me?
Nothing left to say
Nothing left to say, ah baby
What you want from me?
Doing what it takes
Gonna run away
Oh baby, baby (Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, ooh)
I’m feeling faded (I’m feeling faded)
I’m feeling faded
I’m feeling faded

It’s about throwing everything you have at your last hours with someone you love, saying sometimes it’s best to leave a situation before it burns out and becomes ugly. We’ve all been there before.
