Slow Fade Lyrics

Slow fade pictures in my mind
Fragments of memories suspended in time
I watch the colors fade and the lines disappear
Slow fade pictures in my mind

Peeking pictures in my mind
The fleeting images recede and decline
The colors seep away and the lines disappear
Slow fade pictures in my mind

I watch the colors fade and the lines disappear
Slow fade pictures in my mind

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

A true Norman Blake masterpiece, a simple idea poetically displayed. The fading of cherished memories disappearing as one ages. This song makes me very sad and yet very content at the same time.
