Originally formed in Santa Monica as remnants of the band Opal, Mazzy Star was led by David Roback’s friend Hope Sandoval after Kendra Smith left the group in 1988. The band is iconic and has written many memorable songs including ‘Fade Into You’.
The song reached silver certification in the United Kingdom getting over 200,000 sales and peaked at number 3 in Iceland. It was also part of the album ‘So Tonight That I Might See,’ which luckily for us reached over 1 million copies sold in the United States and gained platinum status.
I want to hold the hand inside youI want to take the breath that’s trueI look to you, and I see nothingI look to you to see the truth
You live your life, you go in shadowsYou’ll come apart, and you’ll go blackSome kind of night into your darknessColors your eyes with what’s not there
Fade into youStrange you never knewFade into youI think it’s strange you never knew
A stranger’s light comes on slowlyA stranger’s heart without a homeYou put your hands into your headAnd then smiles cover your heart
Fade into youStrange you never knewFade into youI think it’s strange you never knew
Fade into youStrange you never knewFade into youI think it’s strange you never knew
I think it’s strange you never knew
