Al Stewart - Time Passages
It was late in December,
the sky turned to snow
All round the day
was going 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 these
Time passages
I know you're in there,
you're just out of sight
Time passages
Buy me a ticket on the
last train home tonight
