Fading Memories

Fading memories of you and me
Nothing left but what we used to be

Empty coffee cup beside my bed
All the words we never really said
Pictures scattered on the bedroom floor
You're not coming through that door anymore
Sweater that still smells like you
Wishing I could hold you too

Slowly letting go of yesterday
Watching all our colors turn to grey
Time will heal but scars remain
Learning how to love again

Fading memories of you and me
Nothing left but what we used to be
Gentle rain against my window pane
Washing away the love and pain
Fading memories of you and me
Setting my broken heart free
Learning how to breathe again
Without you here with me

Morning light through curtains feels so cold
Stories that we'll never get to hold
Used to dance to our favorite song
Now I'm learning how to move along
Tears that dried like morning dew
Finally saying goodbye to you

Slowly letting go of yesterday
Watching all our colors turn to grey
Time will heal but scars remain
Learning how to love again

Fading memories of you and me
Nothing left but what we used to be
Gentle rain against my window pane
Washing away the love and pain
Fading memories of you and me
Setting my broken heart free
Finding peace in letting go
This is all I need to know

Maybe someday I'll look back and smile
Remember the good times for a while
But for now I'll let these memories fade
Into the choices that we made

Fading memories of you and me
Nothing left but what we used to be
Gentle rain against my window pane
Washing away the love and pain
Fading memories of you and me
Peaceful now, I'm finally free
Learning how to love myself
Without needing someone else

Fading memories of you and me
Nothing left but what we used to be
Fading memories
