Gordon Lightfoot - Fading Away lyric

I was at the break wall, I was lookin' at the sea

In back of the eight ball in some misery

There on the horizon stood a mighty ship of fools

They were headin' into the harbor with all their broken rules



Whenever I'm feelin' lonely I can just pick up the phone

Or I can go to the movies or just stay at home alone

They're better off to be someplace that's a good long way from home

Any way I can lose myself



Dawn is breakin', I'm hesitatin'

I'm fading away, fading away



They sailed right up to me, I said, "What's it all about

Please try to excuse me, we can work things out

If you've ever wondered if that mighty ship is real

Let me tell ya 'bout it, brother, it was somethin' you could feel"



Whenever I'm feelin' lonely, I let twilight set the tone

Or I can go to the movies or just stay at home alone

They're better off to be someplace, that's a good long way to roam

Ain't livin' high on the hog right now



Dawn is breakin', I'm hesitatin'

I'm fading away, fading away



One more day on the calendar in my mind

I am down at the break wall puttin' in some time

The whole ship of fools has gotten safely under way

And I was proud to be a part of what it was they had to say



Whenever I'm feelin' lonely I can just pick up the phone

Or I can go to the movies or just stay at home alone

They're better off to be someplace that's a good long piece from home

Any way I can lose myself



Dawn is breakin', I'm hesitatin'

I'm fading away, fading away

Fading away, fading away
