MEGAFAUN - THE FADE
from the album "Gather, Form & Fly" 

                                                 
                  A coffee stain dried and faint covers up the date
                                                     
On a picture that I found in the attic on the ground of your old place
                                            
It's black and white and in this light it's hard to tell
                                                            
If the glasses on your face were the same ones on the day they buried you

                 
Whoa oh oh    Whoa oh
  
I long to see your face
                 
Whoa oh oh    Whoa oh
  
A picture in its place

                                    
It's been a year and now I fear the fade is on
                                                          
It's the slowly turning down of the well acquainted sound of your old voice
                                            
The way you laughed when others laughed was welcoming
                                                          
It's the way I see you look at whoever it was that took this photograph

                 
Whoa oh oh    Whoa oh
  
I long to see your face
                 
Whoa oh oh    Whoa oh
  
A picture in its place

I long to see your face
                  
Whoa oh oh    Haa oh...
