The road has a way of making you small
o one out here knows my name at all
can't sit still but I won't move on
but don't look for me I'll soon be gone
chorus:
I'm gonna fade away
I'm gonna fade away
I'm gonna fade away
I'm gonna fade away
Landscape filled with prying eyes
but that should come as no surprise
so I'm out here for all to see
come and get your last good look at me
I'm gonna fade away
I'm gonna fade away
I'm gonna fade away
I'm gonna fade away
Dust that settles has a story to tell
and it's a story that I know well
But goodbye Angeline and goodbye Annabelle
Oh I truly wish you well
there's nothing here for me anymore
except my name carved in your floor
I'm gonna fade away
I'm gonna fade away
I'm gonna fade away
I'm gonna fade away
