Those Dancing Days - When We Fade Away lyrics

If you try to catch me You'll be the first to lose Freedom can be lonely Loneliness makes me think Still I'm rather on my own Than put into a cage So if you try to catch me I'm already far away I'm far away, I'm far away I am a dream you cannot catch I am your dream I can never be We fade away when ladybirds get pale We fade away when ladybirds turn grey Not even you can bring Life back from dead twice My eyes are tired of trying To stay dry on rainy days I can't read your mind Even less can you read mine Can you read mine? Can you read mine? Freckles on the lips Seemed too much to resist Wondering why they were stuck on my mind I rubbed and scraped day after day Just to get them away It struck me down, now I do know why My lips are marked with freckles all over My lips are marked with freckles all over All over
