Paroles :

If I could recapture

All of the memories

And bring them to life

Surely I would

Hear the distant laughter

Wasn't it you and me

Surviving the night?

You're fading out of my sight

Swiftly

You're vanishing

Drifting away

You're vanishing

Oh, oh, oh, oh

I was so enraptured

No sensibility

To open my eyes

I misunderstood

Now you're fading faster

It's suddenly hard to see

You're taking the light

Letting the shadows inside

Swiftly

You're vanishing

Drifting away

You're vanishing

Oh, oh, oh, oh

You're vanishing

Drifting away

Reaching out into the distance

Searching for spirits of the past

Just a trace of your existence

To grasp

And if somehow I could recapture

All of the memories

And bring them to life

Lord knows I would

But now you're fading faster

Getting so hard to see

Taking the light

Letting the darkness inside

Swiftly

You're vanishing

Drifting away

You're vanishing

You're vanishing

Drifting so far away

Vanishing

Oh, yeah

Away

Critique :

« Vanishing » est le cinquième titre de l'album éponyme de Mariah Carey, son premier opus.

Dans son livre, Chris Nickson écrit :

Vanishing offrait un contraste saisissant, une approche radicalement dépouillée, uniquement composée de piano et de la voix de Mariah.
