TODD RUNDGREN - Fade Away lyrics

The sound of afternoon is gone

The corner store has locked its door

And everyone has left for home

When their sleepy little heads

settle snug inside their beds

You and I will stay and watch the sun fade away

The balladeer, the buccaneer

The liar, the man who would be king

The cavalier, the profiteer

The one who knows only suffering

As the cannons gather rust,

all their castles turn to dust

You and I will stay and see them fade away

We are on an endless flight my friend

With no beginning and no end

I've forgotten more than I remember

Sometimes I want to hide myself away

But I know there's no escape

We must go on, go on forever

The sea will rise, mountains fall

The earth will turn itself upside down

But we have seen it all before,

we will always be around

In a hundred million years

when the planet disappears

You and I will stay

and watch the world fade away

And in a million trillion years

when the stars all disappear

You and I will stay

and watch it all fade away
