A Fading Memory Lyrics by Aaron Bowman

Distant

2018

[Verse 1]
I wonder what happened in that old house
The door is locked and the key is lost
Do people even care or do they just drive by?
It probably never crossed their mind

A light glows dimly from a window at night
Left from a lifetime that just won’t die
The roof is falling and the floors are caving in
Does it ever cross their minds?
Does it ever cross their minds?

[Chorus]
What was once a home is now just the past
What was once a life is now fading fast
A distant memory
A ghost that doesn’t last
Does it ever cross their minds?
Does it ever cross their minds?

[Verse 2]
That there was a day when all was happy and well
These rooms weren’t empty and the beds would never tell
But years went by and rot set in
Does it ever cross your mind?
Does it ever cross your mind?

[Chorus]
What was once a home is now just the past
What was once a life is now fading fast
A distant memory
A ghost that doesn’t last

Does it ever cross your mind?
Does it ever cross your mind?
Does it ever cross your mind?
Does it ever cross your mind?

What was once a home is now just the past
What was once a life is now fading fast
A distant memory
A ghost that doesn’t last
Does it ever cross your mind?
Does it ever cross your mind?
