Time Passages

Lyrics

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