Faded Love
by John and Bob Wills

""I came from a family of fiddlers, and this song was originally an old fiddle tune that had been in the family for years. My father John Wills taught me the tune, and it was just a matter of putting words to it. My younger brother Billy Jack helped me with the words." —Bob Wills

Faded Love

As I look at the letters you wrote to me
It's you that I'm thinking of
As I read the lines that to me were so sweet
I remember our faded love.

I miss you, darling, more and more ev'ry day
As heaven would miss the stars above
With every heartbeat I still think of you
And remember our faded love.

I think of the past and all the pleasures we had
As I watch the mating of the dove
It was in the springtime that you said goodbye
I remember our faded love.
