Lyrics

She said my shoes were cheap and my clothes were all outdated She stopped me drinking beer and she gave me wine But I can't hide from what I am: just an ordinary man Trying to make it through the day As I watch our love so slowly fade away (Fade away) Like a flower She said my friends were fools and she won't talk to my brother She made me sit there and talk to her friends But I can see it their eyes, they are frowning as they smile And I didn't have much to say I just watched our love so slowly fade away (Fade away) Like a flower I watched our love so ever slowly fade (Fade away) Like the summertime Like the honesty you promised me would stay She said I gotta change my ways or she's leaving me tommorrow I said "Get out of here, leave me alone" And she came crying to my door Said she liked me as before But she had a price to pay Cuz at last our love could finally fade away (Fade away) Like a flower I watched our love so ever slowly fade (Fade away) Like a flower I watched our love die and go away (Fade away) Like a flower I watched our love so ever slowly fade (Fade away) Like a summertime I watched our love so ever slowly… (Fade away)
