Fade by Erika Spencer
Time never stands still. The snow will melt. Life will move on as usual. But "we" has become "you" and "me". "Fade" by Swiss singer-songwriter Erika Spencer tells the story of a couple that part ways due to different goals in life. Without anger and reproach, but with a lot of melancholy.

Lyrics
The snow will melt
The seasons will change
There‘ll be birthdays and weddings and moves but they won‘t be the same
I‘ll be I
And you‘ll be you
We‘ll each of us be getting back up and starting anew
In an empty flat
Overwhelmed and sad
How did we start?
How did we end?
Have you found out what it all meant?
Where are we going now
On our separate ways?
What was the point of these two thousand one hundred forty five days?
If they’re all to fade
You‘ve taken what‘s yours
I‘ve taken what’s mine
But then so much was ours and we chose it with us in mind
I‘ll no longer be hearing
How your day went
Oh, I wish we could go back and do it all over again
Looking one last time
At what we‘ve left behind
How did we start?
How did we end?
Have you found out what it all meant?
Where are we going now
On our separate ways?
What was the point of these two thousand one hundred forty five days?
If they’re all to fade
Where are we going now
On our separate ways?
What was the point of these two thousand one hundred forty five days
If they’re all to fade
If they’re all to fade
If they’re all to fade
If they’re all to fade

Erika Spencer makes music about the seriousness of life without taking herself too seriously. Her music deals with the human experience, with honesty and precision, and at the same time always with a twinkle in her eye. A bit like the books of Jane Austen, which she fell in love with as a teenager. The Swiss singer-songwriter with South African roots combines alternative pop with jazz and folk.
