You lie in bed close your eyes waiting for tears to fall
It is no surprise when they don’t come
Just like so many times before, you gave your all
All this hurt you feel has made you numb 

You get up and stare into your coffee cup
It all plays back like a movie in your head
So many times you should have given up
But you always held on tight instead

You didn’t think this one would fade away
But it just became real today
Nothing left to do, no words to say
You didn’t think this one would fade away 

Here you go again, you know how to play the role
You know the part so well, never miss a cue
Every time that curtain falls, it takes a toll
The lights go dim the final act is through

You’re no stranger to this feeling when it’s over
You’ve been here so many times before
This broken heart mends a little slower
You know soon your headed back for more 

You didn’t think this one would fade away
But it just became real today
Nothing left to do, no words to say
You didn’t think this one would fade away  

You didn’t think this one would fade away
Aw, but it just became real today
Nothing left to do, no words to say
You didn’t think this one would fade away

You didn’t think this one would fade away
But it just became real today
Nothing left to do, no words to say
You didn’t think this one would fade away
You didn’t think this one would fade away
