The sun fades the color of everything

We lie here and we lie here
awaiting the return
of the passion that has left us
with the patience we've learned
sinking in the ashes
of the red night's final swing
the sun fades the color of everything

we lie here and we lie here
without much to say
in our silent sanctuary
we call it a day
seasons change quietly
Winter whispers Spring
the sun fades the color of everything

Me and you, we wait it out
it might be 'round the bend
every time we think it's gone
it comes back again
we hold on to each other
but to our faith we cling
the sun fades the color of everything

We lie here and we lie here
waiting for a sign
you follow yours
and I follow mine
sleeping with our backs turned
floating off on polished wings
the sun fades the color of everything

Me and you, we wait it out
it might be 'round the bend
every time we think it's gone
it comes back again
we hold on to each other
but to our faith we cling
the sun fades the color of everything
