Pete Murray Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Passin' time you've come so far but you're still behind
Lose your mind if you cut this line
It's just the way it's been
All your friends and all their sins
Just passin' time don't fall behind

I will come for you
If you call I'll come right now
I will help you see through
All your pained and troubled times
Just to know I'll be there if you ever decide to call

Passin' time all your addictions are so sublime
Lose your mind if you cross the line
It's just the way it's been
All your friends and all their sins
Just passin' time don't fall behind

I will come for you
If you call I'll come right now
I will help you see through
All your pained and troubled times
Just to know I'll be there if you ever decide to call

I'll be there for you
If you ever call
I'll be there for you
Anytime at all

Passin' time, just passin' time
(You've come so far)
(You've come so far)
(You've come so far)
(You've come so far)




(You've come so far)
(You've come so far)
