She cries at everything Like a bird with a broken wing I want to save her But I know she wouldn't want me to Just look where the world has gone We're standing in the middle of a gathering storm And everybody thinks that their own way is true And as each morning comes I wake up in our bed She turns and smiles at me All day long I watch her in my head Alright it's a long cold night And I'm just happy to stay inside All the world fades away when I'm with you Out in the desert in a rented car To find some peace you've got to go this far I was having trouble 'cause my mind just wouldn't clear She looked out the window, said what do you think You wouldn't even know we were on the brink What a gift, thank you for bringing me here And as we drove away, moonlight in our eyes All the clouds they moved away A thousand stars lit up all the skies Alright it's a long cold night And I'm just happy to stay inside All the world fades away All the world fades away We lose our heads and we go too far But that's just what lovers are All the world fades away All the world fades away Right in the middle of the dullest day She turned said baby let's run away Who'd even miss us if we left for a year or two So we packed our stuff shut the city down Headed to the coast, a little fishing town Trying to find peace, live like locals do And as each day would come We'd look out on the shore And watch the icefloes run And wonder why we ever needed Wonder why we ever needed more Alright it's a long cold night And I'm just happy to stay inside All the world fades away All the world fades away Lose our heads and we go too far That's just what lovers are All the world fades away All the world fades away You can't hide from everything You just can't tell what the future'll bring All the world fades away when I'm with you
