Fading Love

I’m starting to forget why
I crave your body by my side. 
The memories fade away and 
I can’t remember why I stay. 
I used to think that we 
would make it through the unforeseen
And never be broken apart 
but now I see that it’s my heart that’s breaking.

If I knew this is how it’d end
I would have just stayed your friend.
I just want to feel your touch
although I’m not sure it’ll be enough
to make me think things are good, 
and working out as they should.
I picture us smiling, nothing wrong, 
but I can’t keep pretending.

I wish I could just let go
or let you know
I need your love to show. 
Cause I need some sort of sign 
to know you still want to be mine.
I’m worried your love is gone, you’ve moved on
and you no longer need me.
