Instrumental Intro
Verse 1
Morning comes in pieces through the blinds
I count the cracks across the kitchen wall
Someone left the window open wide
And every little sound begins to fall
Pre-Chorus
The tape hiss hums a quiet tune
Your voice is stitched inside the room
Chorus
When color fades away
What remains
What reveals itself
When color fades away
I hold the shape of you
Post-Chorus
Oh-oh oh-oh
Oh-oh oh-oh
Verse 2
I press my palm against the wooden frame
Feel the grain remember what it knew
Half of me is humming like a wire
Half of me is waiting to come through
Pre-Chorus
A violin behind the door
Then a wave that wants no more
Chorus
When color fades away
What remains
What reveals itself
When color fades away
I hold the shape of you
Post-Chorus
Oh-oh oh-oh
Oh-oh oh-oh
Bridge
Gone the gray gone the gold
Gone the stories I was told
Still the strings still the skin
Let the quiet wander in
Breakdown
When color fades away
What remains
What reveals itself
Chorus
When color fades away
What remains
What reveals itself
When color fades away
I hold the shape of you
Post-Chorus
Oh-oh oh-oh
Oh-oh oh-oh
Outro
Mm
Mm-hmm
What remains
