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
'cos Now They Understand
All You Ever Do Is Fade Away
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
'cos Now She Understands
All You Ever Do Is Fade Away
When He's In
She's...
All You Ever Do Is Fade Away
All You Ever Do Is Fade Away
They're Not Making Plans
'cos Now They Understand
He Must Learn to Forget
'cos This Is All You'll Ever Get
All You Ever Do Is Fade Away
