Passing Time lyrics

I thought we were much closer,

I thought I saw it in her eyes.

The way we touched each other,

the words she said to me,

I never realized.

All the moments gone right by

and all the time spent by my side,

the memories that passed us by,

just what did it all mean?

I was someone there to laugh with,

I was someone there to hold.

But given time, 

I know I could be substituted cold. 

She said that I was foolish,

that our love would never die,

but I could see how this would be 

a memory, 

just passin' time.

She said that there's no other,

that I can be the only one,

but I can see another.

This love can never be,

I can see it in her eyes.

All the moments gone right by

and all the time spent by my side,

the memories that passed us by,

just what did it all mean?

I was someone there to laugh with,

I was someone there to hold.

But given time, 

I know I could be substituted cold.

She said that I was foolish,

that our love would never die,

but I could see how this would be 

a memory,

just passin' time.

Should've never tried to make

this more than it could be,

but now I leave you standing there

to make it go away and close my eyes,

to make it go away and close my eyes.

She said that I was foolish,

that our love would never die,

but I could see how this would be 

a memory,

just passin' time.
