Lyrics
JUST PASSING TIME
ONCE I HAD A MAN, WHAT I HAD WAS HIS, AND WHAT WAS HIS WAS MINE, BUT HE WAS JUST A REAL DOG AT TIMES, MADE MY LIFE A REAL HELL, YOU KNOW THE KIND. SO WHEN I GAVE UP ON HIM, I DECIDED TO GO, AND DO WHAT WAS BEST FOR ME YOU KNOW, IÂ?LL MEET A MAN ONE DAY WHO WILL TAKE THOSE FEARS AWAY. BUT UNTIL I FIND IÂ?LL ALWAYS BE PASSING TIME.(VERSE 1)
AND WHEN THE RIGHT MAN COMES ALONG IÂ?LL KNOW, BY THE LOVE THAT HE SHOWS, THE LOOK IN HIS EYES THAT TELLS ME HE KNOWS, IN THE STROKE OF HIS HAND I CAN ALWAYS DEPEND, IN HIS WORDS HE SPEAKS THE TRUTH, WHEN HE TELLS ME I LOVE YOU, BUT UNTIL I FIND IÂ?LL JUST BE PASSING TIME.(HOOK)
I MET A MAN WHO WAS TO ME MY FRIEND, HE SAID HE CARED, AND THEN HE DARED TO SAY HE LOVED ME. BUT WHEN THAT LOVE WAS PUT TO THE TEST, HE COULD NOT GIVE OURS HIS BEST, AND EVEN THOUGH HE WAS STILL MY FRIEND, I KNEW THAT LOVE I COULD NOT DEPEND. SO I TOLD HIM HIS LOVE WAS NOT NEEDED, THAT WE WERE STILL JUST PASSING TIME.(VERSE 2)
(HOOK)Â?Â?Â?Â?Â?Â?Â?Â?Â?Â?Â?Â?Â?Â?Â?Â?Â?Â?Â?Â?Â?Â?Â?Â?Â?Â?Â?Â?Â?..
ITÂ?S HARD TO BE ALONE IN AWORLD SO FULL OF LOVE AND LOVE IS A TERRIBLE THING TO WASTE. LIFE GOES ON, STILL I MUST BE STRONG. MY HEART WILL RUN THIS RACE UNTIL LOVE SHOWS HIS FACE., AND THAT MAN WILL BE A LUCKY MAN.(BRIDGE)
CAUSE WHEN THE RIGHT MAN COMES ALONG IÂ?LL KNOW, BY THE LOVE THAT HE SHOWS, THE LOOK IN HIS EYESÂ?HE KNOWSÂ? STROKE OF HIS HANDS I CAN DEPEND, IN HIS WORDS HE SPEAKS THE TRUTH, WHEN HE TELLS ME I LOVE YOU. BUT UNTIL I FIND , IÂ?LL JUST BE PASSING TIME. (END)
