They stumbled into their lives
In a vague way became man and wife
One got the other, they deserved one another
They settled in a brand new town
With people from the same background
They kept themselves busy
Long hours left them dizzy
Now when he's in she's out
All you ever do is fade away
All you ever do is fade away
He's not making plans
'Cause now he understands
All you ever do is fade away
[Trombone solo]
He noticed he had visible lines
She worried about her behind
Their birth had been the death of them
It didn't really bother them
Now when she's in he's out
All you ever do is fade away
All you ever do is fade away
She's not making plans
'Cause now she understands
All you ever do is fade away
[Piano solo]
When he's in she's out
[Another trombone solo]
All you ever do is fade away
All you ever do is fade away
They're not making plans
'Cause now they understand
We must learn to forget
'Cause this is all you'll ever get
All you ever do is fade away
All you ever do is fade away
They're not making plans
'Cause now they understand
All you ever do is fade away
All you ever do is fade away
All you ever do is fade away
