Lyrics Paul Carrack – Time Passes
Text:
I lie here waiting in the dark
For the morning light
To come around
Counting the cracks up on the wall
Every single sign
As I watch the seconds tick away
I only wish there were less hours in the day
I’ve grown addicted to your touch
You know that I’ve got a craving
I need it so much
Time passes so slowly
When you’re far away
This is the last time that
I leave you this way
I’m listening to the ticking clock
Watching at the hands creeping round and round
Just like a kid kept after school
Only difference is
I’m a grown man now
Sometimes I stop and wonder why
I’m spending every night alone
Just killing time
But I guess that’s just the price you pay
Oh but it feels like I’m wishing my life away
Time passes so slowly
When you’re far away
This is the last time that
I leave you this way
I know it won’t be long
I won’t be right
I’m letting my impressions
Get the better of me
I can’t take it any longer
I need you baby
You know time passes so slowly
When you’re far away
This is the last time that
I leave you this way
Sometimes I stop and wonder why
I’m spending every night alone
Just killing time
But I guess that’s just the price you pay
Oh but it feels like I’m wishing my life away
Time passes so slowly
When you’re far away
This is the last time that
I leave you this way
