Photographs / Fade Away

Somebody called to tell me that you had passed away
And as I heard these words, there was nothing I could say
I felt the tears drip off my face and fall down to the floor
I wish now that I'd said goodbye before you walked through that door

I walk up to the sullen grave that's forever stained your name
I remembered our lives and realized that I'll never be the same
I guess I should have told you just how much you meant to me
This world is cold and cruel and finally you have been freed

You died and you're taking me with you
It's called love and there's nothing we can do
You're gone and you've taken me with you
But now you're everywhere to me

I lay alone at night without you there to comfort me
And I lose sleep for all the times that I see you in my dreams
I never thought I'd end up such a hopeless wreck of a man
You were my everything and that night I lost all I had

You died and you're taking me with you
It's called love and there's nothing we can do
You're gone and you've taken me with you
But now you're everywhere to me

You died and you're taking me with you
It's called love and there's nothing we can do
You're gone and you've taken me with you
But now you're everywhere to me

And now you're gone because of me
And now you're gone because of me

I see now that I can't be strong like you wanted me to be
But I can tell you now that you were everything to me
It's out of my control and there is nothing I can do
So goodbye my love
Don't forget that I will always love you
