You don't need me anymore
Things aren't like they were before
Once your young eyes stared in mine
And you told me that they shine
You have left me far behind
We're no longer intertwined
You don't need me anymore
Used to be you eating from my open hand
Taking from me everything your mind could stand
And love was all we needed
Together we succeeded
To walk along the fading line
Refrain
Don't know where the years have gone that disappeared
Now the way it's come to be is what I feared
Your juices all run dry
And here's me wondering why
We've fallen from the fading line
Refrain
There's something deep inside the heart of every man
Needs to feel he's needed - not an "also-ran"
Needs to know she cares
That the flames inside still flare
Not fading with the fading line
Refrain
You never really spelled it out in spoken words
The long slow death of passion's heart was all I heard
Through I think I always knew
That the price for love would come due
As we wrestled with the fading line
Refrain
I guess that it just cannot happen after all
Those who think they'll span two worlds will always fall
Cos they just don't have the time
To make a sighing love-song rhyme
And keep it all from fading with the line
