Never Fade Away
Air Supply · Air Supply
Speaking into the air
Where can I find the life
I know that only dreams can share
I close my eyes and see you there
Calling me far beyond
Wrapped in a robe of mystery
You wave your magic wand
Maybe it's real, only life is illusion
Don't break my heart
Hold out your hand and I'll never lose you
Don't break my heart
Yes, I'm a man and just flesh and bone
But you do not live, all my dreams are your home
I stare through a veil, so thin, yet so near
And walk in your footsteps as you cast off my fear
Walk with me through the gates of time to eternity
ANd our love will never fade away
We can fly to a bridge across the sky
Where the souls that would always cry will never
Fade away
Walking along the boulevard
Wishing we were complete
Why are some things so very hard to witness and believe
The victor of this universe
The victim of the wind
Where does a dream begin and end
And where does life begin
Maybe it's real, only life is illusion
Don't break my heart
Hold out your hand and I'll never lose you
Don't break my heart
Yes, I'm a man and just flesh and bone
But you do not live, all my dreams are your home
I stare through a veil, so thin, yet so near
And walk in your footsteps as you cast off my fear
Walk with me through the gates of time to eternity
And our love will never fade away
We can climb to a bridge across the sky
Where the souls that would always cry will never
Fade away
