Lyrics

YEAH…

When the times got tough I never thought about leaving
When the nights got too dark I never felt like hiding
Or so you’d think…yeah

When the loving stalled I never thought about running
When the smiles all faded I never thought about giving up
Or so you'd think…yeah

When I needed to be sunshine I was fire and rain
When I needed to be strong I simply failed again
It was easier to fade away...

When the doubts got darker I would shine like a morning
When the silence got crazy I would be the steady voice
Or so you’d think...yeah

When the world became stormy I would be a safe harbor
When the dreams were lost I’d do my best to find them
Or so you’d think...yeah

When I needed to be sunshine I was fire and rain
When I needed to be strong I simply failed again
It was easier to fade away...

When the times got tough I never thought about leaving
When the nights got too dark I never felt like hiding
Or so you’d think…yeah

When I needed to be sunshine I was fire and rain
When I needed to be strong I simply failed again
It was easier to turn away…
It was easier to run away...
It was easier to fade away
(Fade…fade away…)
...Yeah
