[Verse 1: Tyler Shaw]
All the empires that came to an end
All the church bells that won't ring again
All the ruins still get visited
For their faded splendor
All the pictures face down in a drawer
All the words that we don't say no more
All the things you used to love me for
I remember
[Pre-Chorus: Tyler Shaw]
Something that beautiful
Never goes away
[Chorus: Tyler Shaw, Donovan Woods
It's all faded splendor
All wasted time
Started building a foundation
That would hold us for the rest of our lives
Yeah, wе tried
A shiny city in the distance
Only wе know it existed
Could've been the greatest love of my whole life
Now it's all faded splendor
You and I
You and I
Oh, you and I
[Verse 2: Donovan Woods]
Every sunset that we've ever seen
Never lasted long enough for me
I wanna feel the warmth a little more
I wanna show up some night at your door
I wanna talk about the way it was
And what about us wasn't good enough
[Chorus: Tyler Shaw, Donovan Woods
It's all faded splendor
All wasted time
Started building a foundation
That would hold us for the rest of our lives
Yeah, we tried
A shiny city in the distance
Only we know it existed
Could've been the greatest love of my whole life
Now it's all faded splendor
You and I
You and I
Oh, you and I
[Bridge: Donovan Woods]
Something that beautiful
Never goes away (Goes away)
Something that beautiful
Never goes away (Goes away)
[Chorus: Tyler Shaw, Donovan Woods
It's all faded splendor
All wasted time
Started building a foundation
That would hold us for the rest of our lives
Yeah, we tried
A shiny city in the distance
Only we know it existed
Could've been the greatest love of my whole life
Now it's all faded splendor
You and I
You and I
Oh, you and I
