Passing Me By

You came to me, caught me by surprise

I left it all hangin' in the rye

I call your name, but you don't realize

You don't even answer to that

Lookin' around to everyone that I know

Passing me by in a street where we all used to be

Comparing notes, checkin' it twice

Hopin' I get somethin' right while I'm still alive (I'm still alive)

I won't leave you tonight

Just hold my hand and we'll ride

I won't perish tonight

Just hold me until they arrive

Tonight

We'll ride

We found ourselves taking different paths

I see you out and I miss your laugh

But I know you better than anyone

Should we try again this time?

Searchin' around for those who never had

A head start in this life, well, I fell too behind

Writing it down, making it count

Hopin' I get somethin' right while I'm still around (I'm still around)

I won't leave you tonight

Just hold my hand and we'll ride

I won't perish tonight

Just hold me until they arrive

(You let me down, I'll let you in again)

Tonight (you know where you stand with me)

We'll ride (you let me down, I'll let you in again)

(You know where you stand to me)

Tonight (you know where you stand)

We'll ride (you let me down, I'll let you in again)

Tonight (you know where you stand with me)

We'll ride (you let me down, I'll let you in again)

(You know where you stand to me)

Tonight (you know where you stand)

We'll ride (you let me down, I'll let you in again)
