Fading like a flower (every time you leave)
roxette
words & music: per gessle
In a time where the sun descends alone,
i ran a long long way from home
to find a heart that's made out of stone.
i will try,
i just need a little time
to get your face right out of my mind,
to see the world through different eyes
Every time i see you oh i try to hide away
but when we meet it seems i can't let go.
every time you leave the room
i feel i'm fading like a flower
Tell me why?
when i scream there's no reply,
when i reach out there's nothing to find,
when i sleep i break down and cry
Every time i see you oh i try to hide away
but when we meet it seems i can't let go.
every time you leave the room
i feel i'm fading like a flower
Fading like a rose,
fading like a rose,
beaten by the storm,
talking to myself,
getting washed by the rain,
it's such a cold cold town.
