Die Away

Words and Music by Simon Rushby and Matthew Brimilcombe

You, you didn’t want to, want to know,
You didn’t listen when it hurt,
You were so distant,
On the horizon it seemed.

I, I was a dreamer, just like you,
Maybe your dream came true,
I was left with only my dreaming,
Fading like evening into night.

And all my love for you,
You hold it in your hands,
You watch it turn to dust,
And die away
Die away.

We, we knew our future, never a doubt,
We had it all mapped out,
We had a chance, but you don’t remember,
You’ve just erased that memory,
But it’s still with me.

And all my love for you,
You hold it in your hands,
You watch it turn to dust,
And die away,
Die away.

The plans we made when we were young,
So certain now that you’ve undone,
You’ve caused me pain but you don’t care,
All our cards thrown in the air.

You watch it turn to dust,
And die away
Die away.
And all my love for you,
You hold it in your hands,
You watch it turn to dust,
And die away.
