Fade Away - Original Song

Fade Away is a song I wrote about 15 years ago. John covered this a few month back and I really like how he sang it. His version inspired me to dust this one off and try it again. The song is only a couple minutes long. I blab on for a long time trying to be all poetic after the song. Acoustic guitar and vocal. Travis fingerpicking guitar. Singer songwriter. Original song.

Fade Away
Written and performed by
Dan D. Dirges

Wind blows thru the tree`s, takes the dying leaves
You and I saw when they were born in Spring
In colors of red and gold they fall to the ground
Landing softly to the earth they make not a sound

Fade away, fade away, time waits for nothing, nothing stands in it`s way
Fade away, fade away, everything upon the earth must fade away

I remember when you danced in the golden sun
You took my breath away, life had just begun
Thru the years you walked with me, we grew old
When you died I buried you with a rose

Fade away, fade away, time waits for nothing, nothing stands in it`s way
Fade away, fade away, everything upon the earth must fade away
