Fade Into the Background Songtext
von Ne‐Yo

Damn
She looks so good in that white dress
At the far end of the aisle
Standing where I should be standing
Some other man on his face, there′s a smile

I just walked in, sat down silent
I stood outside for a while
Wondering, why did I come here?
Face it, you messed up, and now
She's with somebody else, yeah, yeah

And now all I can do is smile
And fade into the background (ooh, ooh, ooh)
I′ll say congratulations, and I'll fade into the background


Such a lovely reception
I sit here sipping Rosé
Then we catch eyes for a second
Both of us smile then quickly look away

It's funny, you don′t know what you got
Till you ain′t got it no more
Put down my glass, grab the bottle
I throw it back, and I shout she with somebody else

And now all I can do is smile
And fade into the background (ooh, ooh, ooh)
I'll say congratulations, and I′ll fade into the background

So I'll fade into the background
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Ooh, ooh ooh, ooh (ooh, ooh, ooh)

She′s with somebody else
And now all I can do is smile
And fade into the background (ooh, ooh, ooh)
I'll say congratulations, and I′ll fade into the background
