Passenger

Year On Year, Day By Day (Patchwork Version)
Well is life just a walk up a steep hill? You get to the top and then it's all downhill Spinning 'round like the arms of a windmill And you never slow down And is love just a foolish emotion? A Hollywood dream, just a childish notion Plenty of fish but I am miles from the ocean For I'm scared that I'll drown I always thought that I would see it coming Like a train rolling down the line I never dreamed that I would end up running Away from myself and out of time Hey, hey, hey I feel it slipping away Year on year Day by day And how do you know when it's really crunch time? You could choke on a fortune cookie one unfortunate lunchtime And I fear death is just the final punch line Of this comedy show So make them laugh before you go I always thought that I would feel it coming Like a storm in a summer sky SongtexteI thought I'd hear the marching band drumming Thought I'd see the fireworks reflect in her eyes, oh Hey, hey, hey I feel it slipping away Year on year Day by day Well, love can drag you under And it can feel so frightening Love can steal your thunder And strike you down with lightening And at the end of it you'll say I always thought that I would see it land And the hairs on the back of my neck would stand But there's no fireworks or marching band Just a letter from the queen if you live longer than planned oh Hey, hey, hey I feel it slipping away Year on year Day by day Year on year Day by day Aus Songtexte Mania
