Sweet Vision Fading

V1 The child is young it’s just her second summer

She never had her daddy’s arms to keep her warm

Her fathers hand unstained by dirty washing now

He just equipped for loving where is he now

PRE-CH1 He loves you you know he loves he loves you very much

He loves you you know he loves he loves you

Coz he can’t stop crying can’t stop crying now

CH1 And now the vision’s fading fast

each passing day may be the last

Sometimes the vision comes and goes

We follow on and on

V2 The child grows up her fathers in the public bar

Talking to his friends again

Now hes on the phone how is my darling daughter

Theres nothing much to say but it’s worth a try

PRE-CH2 I love you you know I love you I love you very much

I love you you know I love you coz I can’t stop crying

Can’t stop crying now

CH1 And now the vision’s fading fast

each passing day may be the last

Sometimes the vision comes and goes

We follow on and on

We see the vision all the time

with arms outstretched to take what’s mine

theres nothing more that we can do

the visions all we’re left with

[RPT from the second half of verse 2]
