It was late in December, the sky turned to snow |
|
All 'round, the day was going down slow |
|
Night like a river beginning to flow |
|
I felt the beat of my mind go drifting into |
|
Time passages |
|
Years go falling in the fading light |
|
Time passages |
|
Buy me a ticket on the last train home tonight |
|
Well, I'm not the kind to live in the past |
|
The years run too short and the days too fast |
|
The things you lean on are things that don't last |
|
Well, it's just now and then my line gets cast into these |
|
Time passages |
|
There's something back there that you left behind |
|
Oh, time passages |
|
Buy me a ticket on the last train home tonight |
|
Hear the echoes and feel yourself starting to turn |
|
Don't know why you should feel that there's something to learn |
|
It's just a game that you play |
|
Well, the picture is changing, now you're part of a crowd |
|
They're laughing at something and the music's loud |
|
A girl comes towards you you once used to know |
|
You reach out your hand but you're all alone, in those |
|
Time passages |
|
I know you're in there, you're just out of sight |
|
Oh, time passages |
|
Buy me a ticket on the last train home tonight |
