Lyrics

Verse 1:

So you don’t look at me in the same way nowadays

There’s a slight difference in your eyes when your gaze collides with mine

There used to be a warmth in your voice when you’d tell me that you loved me

Now it’s normal if we don’t speak for a whole week.

Pre-Chorus 1:

And the funny thing is that I don’t care

If you don’t care

That I’m not there.

Chorus:

(Can you feel me slipping away?)

My heartbeat, you held me so close

(Can you feel it fading away?)

Unfamiliar now, our love’s becoming an echo.

Verse 2:

So now you no longer love the little things that we used to share

Talking hours on end about everything and nothing, you no longer care

Did we both misunderstand the meaning of forever?

Or is that just a pipe dream in a world where everything is stardust sooner or later?

Pre-Chorus 2:

And the funny thing is that now I don’t mind

Sleeping alone

In fact I’d rather you not be there.

Chorus:

(Can you feel me slipping away?)

My heartbeat, you held me so close

(Can you feel it fading away?)

Unfamiliar now, our love’s becoming an echo.

Middle 8:

The free fall was a breeze

The honeymoon was like a dream

But I think I see the concrete coming closer to me

I’m ready to become a memory.

Chorus:

(Can you feel me slipping away?)

My heartbeat, you held me so close

(Can you feel it fading away?)

Unfamiliar now, our love’s becoming an echo.
