Intro :
over the sea and far away
she's waiting like an iceberg
waiting to c hange
but she's cold inside
she wants to be like the water
all the muscle s tighten in her face
buries he r soul in one e mbrace
they're one and t he same
just like the water
th e fire fades away
most of every d ay
is full of t ired excu ses
but it's too hard to say
i wish it was simple
but we give up easily
you're close e nough to s ee that
you'r e the o ther side of the w orld to me
on comes the panic li ght
holding on wit h fingers and feeli ngs alike
but the time ha s come
to move along
th e fire fades away
most of every d ay
is full of t ired excu ses
but it's too hard to say
i wish it was simple
but we give up easily
you're close e nough to s ee that
you'r e the o ther side of the w orld to me
can you help me
can you let me go
and can you still love me
when you can't s ee m e an ymore
th e fire fades away
most of every d ay
is full of t ired excu ses
but it's too hard to say
i wish it was simple
but we give up easily
you're close e nough to s ee that
you'r e the o ther side of the w orld to me
