Slow Fade

Slow Fade
Lyrics written by John Mark and Mark Hall, Release by Casting Crowns 2007.

Be careful little eyes what you see

It's the second glance that ties your hands

As darkness pulls the strings

Be careful little feet where you go

For it's the little feet behind you

That are sure to follow

Be careful little ears what you hear

When flattery leads to compromise

The end is always near

Be careful little lips what you say

For empty words and promises

Lead broken hearts astray

The journey from your mind to your hands

Is shorter than you're thinking

Be careful if you think you stand

You just might be sinking

Chorus:

It's a slow fade

When you give yourself away

It's a slow fade

When black and white have turned to gray

And thoughts invade, choices are made

A price will be paid

When you give yourself away

People never crumble in a day

I love You,

Jonathan
