lyrics

Turn around
Why won't you face me?
Is something wrong?
Why won't you tell me?
When i see you looking at the ground like that
I know that somethings on your mind
I know
That you are changing
I've noticed that
The feelings are fading
The empathy that you once showed to me
Is disappearing pretty quickly

But can you
Speak to me about it?
Assure me of your love
'Cause i cannot be without it
We can stay up all night 'til we see the day
But don't say you're not gonna stay

A blank stare
Comes from your bored eye
Its like you don't care
I wanna know why
I wanna see you smile again
Il try and make it happen with my pen
But no amount of songs will change a thing
I fear there's no more joy that i can bring you
Tell me what i did so i can understand
I miss the moments where i held your hand

(Chorus)
Then you
Turn around and tell me
"It hasn't been the same since that fight we had lately"
I wanna fix things but you don't seem keen
I think its about time that you come clean

The feelings are fading (4x)

When you
Spoke to me about it
You told me that my love, well
You had to be without it
The feelings were fading now for a long time
I really thought you'd be forever mine
And now
I don't know what to do
Things won't be the same when i don't have you
The picture of us remains on my shelf
I look in the mirror now and i don't see myself
