The Last Light Fading

[Verse 1] In the quiet of a dimming day, I'm sittin' here, My hands are worn like the leather of my old chair. Once had it all, or so the old stories say, But life like autumn leaves, just drifted away. [Verse 2] These walls whisper of the riches and the loss, Ghosts in the hallway, dancin' 'cross the old gloss. Pain comes in waves, but the hardest to conceive, Is how you’re right here, yet still I grieve. [Verse 2] These walls whisper of the riches and the loss, Ghosts in the hallway, dancin' 'cross the old gloss. Pain comes in waves, but the hardest to conceive, Is how you’re right here, yet still I grieve. [Pre-Chorus] Every breath’s a memory, faded and worn, In the silence of this room where my heart was torn. [Chorus] But you, my only light, in the darkest fight, Holdin' on to me, through the shadow's bite. All I’ve lost seems small, when you’re near, Darlin', in your eyes, I find no fear. [Verse 3] These hands that held you, now barely raise a glass, My voice, once strong, now whispers of the past. The clock ticks down, and I feel the time is right, For peace to come, in the closing of the night. [Verse 4] Yet here in this silence, where the world fades out, I see your smile, though it's shadowed by doubt. You're with me, love, in the gentlest of ways, A spectral touch in my end of days. Holdin' on to me, through the shadow's bite. All I’ve lost seems small, when you’re near, Darlin', in your eyes, I find no fear. [Verse 4] gentlest of ways, A spectral touch in my end of days. Holdin' on to me, through the shadow's bite. All I’ve lost seems small, when you’re near, Darlin', in your eyes, I find no fear. [Pre-Chorus] Every breath’s a memory, faded and worn, In the silence of this room where my heart was torn. [Chorus] But you, my only light, in the darkest fight, Holdin' on to me, through the shadow's bite. All I’ve lost seems small, when you’re near, Darlin', in your eyes, I find no fear. [Chorus] All I’ve lost seems small, when you’re near, Darlin', in your eyes, I find no fear. [Bridge] I’m ready now, to let the night in, To fade away, it’s not givin' in. Your love’s the last song my soul will play, On this twilight stage, as I slip away. [Bridge 2] So let me go, love, don't you cry no more, Find peace in knowing, I'm not weary anymore. You've been my beacon, my northern star, Now I’m just a traveler, goin' far. [Bridge 2] Now I’m just a traveler, goin' far. [Chorus] But you, my only light, in the darkest fight, Holdin' on to me, through the shadow's bite. All I’ve lost seems small, when you’re near, Darlin', in your eyes, I find no fear. [Outro] As I drift away, under the moon's soft gleam, I’ll hold you in my dreams, beyond the stream. My love, my heart, in this eternal night, You’re the only truth, my last and only light.
