Time Passages Songtext
von Al Steward

It was late in December, the sky turned to snow
All around the day was running 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

I′m not the kind to live in the past
The years run too short and the days too fast
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
In time passages
Buy me a ticket on the last train home tonight

Hear the echoes and feel yourself starting to turn
I 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 back there, you′re just out of sight
In time passages
Buy me a ticket on the last train home tonight

On time passages
