Alphaville - SHE FADES AWAY lyrics

The lamplight burns my eyes and then

she fades away

My pencil's frozen in my hand

And the letter I can't write

It seems to be a desert without end

I woke up late at night

She called me up

Then disappeared

And the echo of her voice filled the

empty places in my dreams

With the silent tide

She fades away

Again

She fades away

She fades away again

Don't go now

Please, stay

My senses are cruising through a void

As pale reflections play on the

deserted roads

I hear the humming of machines

A distant sound like thunder crawling

through the void

There's no escape

I know

I run around in circles without end

And the more the memory grows

Dissolving from reality

With the silent tide

She fades away

Again

She fades away

She fades away again

Don't go now

Please, stay

Don't make me cry

This time I've got to learn

I know, she won't return
