Before You Fade Away Lyrics by John Van Deusen

Anthem Sprinter

2024

[Verse 1]
I open up my hands
I pry away fingers, forget the plan
Every time I speak
Echoes of your choice haunting me
'Cause I can tell you made up your mind
[Chorus 1]
Still I try
To catch you
Before you fade away
If it's easy
To love me
Then stay another day
[Verse 2]
Your fingerprints by my bed
The books left unfinished
The words unread
Your spirit in my home
A rambling memo
Off your phone
A shred of grace you couldn't seem to find
[Chorus 1]
Still I try
To catch you
Before you fade away
If it's easy
To love me
Then stay another day
Still I try (still I try)
To catch you (to catch you)
Before you fade away
If it's easy (if it's easy)
To love me (to love me)
Then stay another day
[Chorus 2]
If I try
To catch you
Before you fade away
Could be easy
To love me
If you stayed another day
