Passerby Songtext
von Ripe

If too much love is an overdose
So many times I have come so close
I guess I′m still learning though
Still, I fall too quickly to make it last
Skydiving south through my hourglass
I want you, but you just pass
It looks like I'll be singing

I will not be a Passerby
There′s far too much love in life
For simply a quick goodbye
And I don't mind if you keep your pride
Or if you run and hide
Just watch as I pass you by


It seems I'm a fool just trying to change the world
On both knees begging you to join me girl
And always your answer burns
Cuz while I recognize that you′ve been caged for most your life
It does not reconcile the fact that you won′t go outside
If that's true, I guess goodbye
It looks like I′ll be singing

I will not be a Passerby
There's far too much love in life
For simply a quick goodbye
And I don′t mind if you keep your pride
Or if you run and hide
Watch as I pass you by

I will not be a Passerby
There's far too much love in life
For simply a quick goodbye
And I don′t mind if you keep your pride
Or if you run and hide
Just go till you're satisfied
I will not be a Passerby
There's far too much love in life
For simply a quick goodbye
And I don′t mind if you keep your pride
Or if you run and hide
And watch as I pass you by


(Counting backwards from nine)
(Breathing deeply)
(Speaking softly)
(Caring intensely)
(Fighting boredom)
(Building a myth)
(Building a family)
(Making things better)
(Falling into something)
(Head over heels)
