Love Fade is a single by Wilde, featuring a guest rap from rapper LaQuaria Ghetti. The song was released as the third single from Wilde's debut album "Sour", alongside fourth single "My Song". Wilde described her decision to release both songs as singles on the same day was due to her not being able to decide which song to release in October, so she released them both. "Love Fade" was called a stand out from the album, and praised Ghetti's rap verse in the song.
Lyrics[]
(Chorus: Wilde)
Trying to see clear
Trying to hold tight
I'm begging you please, please don't let this love fade
Trying to grab on
Trying to stay yours
I'm begging you please, please don't let this love fade
(Verse 1)
I'm running for you
Trying to make you stay, with me papi
Wanting to touch you all over, my papi
And I don't wanna wait for anything
I wanna have you
You've been keeping your distance lately
You've been keeping away from me lately
You're beginning to fade away boy
(Pre-chorus)
You're just the type of man for me
Strong, caring, and so sweet
I don't wanna let go
Please don't make me boy
(Chorus)
(Verse 2)
I need you right now
Don't want this to be the end of an era
You're the only guy that made me care, ah
And I'm not getting dumped for nothing
I'm taking control
Not gonna have you walk out on me
I'm waiting for you to choose me
And I'm not going to let you leave me
(Pre-chorus)
(Chorus)
(Verse 3: LaQuaria Ghetti)
I'm your girl, and you know you're my man
My one and only, my one true love, see
I'm not going down without a fight
Even if it takes all fucking night
I give you my all love, and my body
That's something I ain't given to nobody
But if you're gonna be like that, well fine
Because I can go to the club, get another guy who's fine
But I don't want to go back, back to the strip clubs
You're the only guy I want to love, let you fuck
All them other fish and that, but I'm a motherfucking shark
If you catch me you'll be eating for weeks (ha, ha)
(Pre-chorus: Wilde)
(Chorus: Wilde and LaQuaria)
