about

This song went through many variations of arrangement, including versions with additional instruments, different speed/tempo, etc., before finally ending up with this as the final approach.
The "normal speed" version of this, appears on the Sky Pipes collection.

lyrics

Fade
====

As we walk, I feel the grip of your hand
A breeze takes along the cool air
The sunlight slips from the end of land
Still there's something more here

Listen, as the sound decays
Even the most vibrant things will fade

Over the water comes a beautiful strain
It attaches inside and becomes ingrained
A beauty so powerful, it causes pain
Sound so true, how can it wane?

The day is at its close
As for tomorrow, it never knows
Take in the beauty of the rose
All you can before it goes

Listen, as the sound decays
Even the most vibrant things will fade

Time to travel the rest of the road
But, with two together, there's more shade
Even when we feel the weight of the load
Still the glow on the inside is what should never fade...
