Time Won't Pass Me By Songtext
von Daryl Hall & John Oates

Blue skies for today
Don′t need no more lonely nights
All the black and blues have made me
Yeah, they made me see the light

Down and out, but always dreaming
Gonna dream the love to grow, oh

I think the sun was in my eyes
But this time, the time won't pass me by
Lucky on the second try (lucky on the second try)
But this time, the time won′t pass me by

I feel so lucky, baby
Just to have another try, oh, yeah
When love comes calling, tears stop falling, hey
I believe I know the reason why

Though I gave your love away
You brought it back and doing that has made me see, oh


I think the sun was in my eyes
But this time, the time won't pass me by (time won't pass me by)
Lucky on the second try (lucky on the second try)
But this time, the time won′t pass me by (time won′t pass me by)

I see the sunlight in your eyes
But this time, the time won't pass me by (time won′t pass me by)
Lucky on the second try (lucky on the second try)
But this time, the time won't pass me by (time won′t pass me by)

Oh, the past I can't replace
Don′t you know I see the future in your face?
(Can it be) can it be the bad times were what it took to see
That the love we had was true for you and good for me? Ooh

Oh, yeah (and this time), won't pass me by (time won't pass me by)
And this time, the time won′t pass me by (time won′t pass me by)
And this time, won't pass me by (time won′t pass me by)
Oh, baby, this time, the time won't pass me by (time won′t pass me by)

(And this time) I think the sun was in my eyes (time won't pass me by)
But this time, the time won′t pass me by (time won't pass me by)
(And this time) lucky on the second try (time won't pass me by)
Well, this time, the time won′t pass me by (time won′t pass me by), oh, yeah


(And this time) it's taking so long (time won′t pass me by)
(And this time) I gotta be strong (time won't pass me by), ooh, yeah
(And this time) blue skies for today (time won′t pass me by)
(And this time) I can't let them sleep away (time won′t pass me by)

(And this time) well, it's taking so long (time won't pass me by), and we got to be strong
(And this time) take it out, take it home, time won′t pass me by (time won′t pass me by)
(And this time) I think the sun was in my eyes (time won't pass me by)
But this time, the time won′t pass me by (time won't pass me by)
