Time Passes Slowly

Lyrics for Time Passes Slowly

Time passes slowly up here in the mountains We sit beside bridges and walk beside fountains Catch the wild fishes that float through the stream Time passes slowly when you're lost in a dream Once I had a sweetheart, she was fine and good-lookin' We sat in her kitchen while her mama was cookin' Starin' out the window to the stars high above Time passes slow when you're searchin' for love Ain't no reason to go in a wagon to town Ain't no reason to go to the fair Ain't no reason to go up, ain't no reason to go down Ain't no reason to go anywhere Time passes slowly up here in the daylight Stare straight ahead and try so hard to stay right Like a red rose of summer that blooms in the day Time passes slowly then fades away
