Lyrics for You've Passed
The lady is dying She bends back like a wave As her spirit is climbing Through the hospital wall and away And I wanted to hold you As you made your escape But now I should have told you When your eyes were alive and awake Always in life we all must make this mistake And so I go it alone And the pressure is great I hold onto my own Oh please, oh don't go away And I wanted to know you Before you started to fade But I gave everything to A lie and a farce and a fake Always in life we all must make this mistake And so I go it alone And the pressure is great I hold onto my own Oh please, oh don't go away I'd like to see you when all of these angry days blow away
