Passenger in Time Lyrics

YOU GOT ME

I’ll do anything you want to make it better
I could through aside temptation and forget her
Then you’ll know exactly where I want to be tonight
Sometimes the best laid plans can turn out all right
Tired of fooling around
Tired of bringing you down down down down

You got me
It’s a shame when I don’t have you
You got me
And it’s plain that you want me too
You got me
I’ll remain cause I know I’ve got to make the most
This moment wasn’t meant to last forever

Now I call you
and it’s late but there’s no one home
It’s my fate assume that you’re not alone
Do I wait and be patient standing by
I debate – I’m unsure of the reason why
No more kidding around
No more putting me down down down down

You got me
I’m insane when I don’t have you
You got me
And it’s plain to see that you want me too
You got me
I’ll remain cause I know I’ve got to make the most
This moment wasn’t meant to last forever

She was there
I explained all the reasons why
I do care
But I still had to let her fly
Tired of sleeping around
To much bringing me down down down down

You got me
It’s a shame when I don’t have you
You got me
And it’s plain that you want me too
You got me
I’ll remain cause I’ve got to make the most
This moment wasn’t meant to last forever

BITTER PILL

Some can change a little
I know about that
Some minds can be brittle
I know about that
You got ripped off you got burned
You were picked off till you learned
To stay in the middle
That’s where you’re at
But if you care to change your mind
It will go easier in time

Say what you want say what you will
Tell me your life is a bitter pill
Do you feel the same everyday
When you’re alone

Possessed by the ocean
I know about that
Perpetual motion
I know about that
You were held down you were dragged
Thought you would drown
When you snagged
On your own emotion
Can you overcome that
If you care to take the time
It will go easy on your mind

Say what you want say what you will
Tell me your life is a bitter pill
Do you feel the same everyday
When you’re alone
Say what you want say what you will
Take a big bite it’s a bitter pill
Do you think of me anyway
Off and on your own

You were there now did you find
It had tranquilized your mind
You were there did it show
You let everybody know
Yeah you were there now give it time
Let it tranquilize your mind
You were there now let it show
Go tell everyone you know

If you care to take time
It will tranquilize your mind

Say what you want say what you will
Tell me your life is a bitter pill
Do you feel the same everyday
When you’re alone
Say what you want say what you will
Take a big bite it’s a bitter pill
Do you think of me anyway
Off and on your own

Say what you want mean what you say
Do you feel the same everyday
Do you think of me anyway when you’re alone
Say it with grace say it with style
Like you meant it to last a long while
Hope you find the time to smile
Off and on your own

PASSENGER IN TIME

Caught up in rhythm
Of these crazy times
Travelin’ blind
Surrounded by a prism
Of sight and sound
Heavenly bound
Then it’s gone – stripped away
Then it’s gone – start to see the day
Nothing in my way

I’m a passenger in time
You led me here but I don’t mind
These summer nights
There’s nothing that I’m waiting for

There seems to be no reason
For this wayward child
To be running wild
Could it be the time of season
Something in the air
There everywhere
Then it’s gone – sucked away
Then it’s gone – gathering up today
Taking me on it’s way

I’m a passenger in time
You led me here but I don’t mind
These summer nights
There’s nothing that I’m waiting for
If your there in some disguise
I will dare to close my eyes
When I wake up
I might even choose the other way

Here I am
In an uncertain land
Clutching a foreign hand
Just like a windblown gain of sand
My life goes
Then it’s gone – but it’s OK
Then it’s gone – changing everyway
Nothing lost today

I’m a passenger in time
You led me here but I don’t mind
I’ve got everything
There’s nothing that I’m waiting for
On these summer nights
If you chance to look my way
On a lost and lonely day
We’re a million miles away
From each other

THE SWEETEST THING

Trading love for company
It’s easy to live comfortably for some time
How it was with you and me
Is something that I couldn’t say
In one short line
The more I think the less I know
I think that I’m quite certain though about it
There’s more than meets these eyes
And at this time I’m not prepared to go without it

It’s something that I can’t explain
Making me move on again
A momentary glimpse contains
The hope that’s there awaiting my next move

Well I’ve got nothing to lose
I’ll live the life that I choose everyday
And keep on watching for clues ’till I’ve found
Tilll I’ve found the sweetest thing

Some say love is just illusion
Multimirrored self diffusion
That got away
I’m no longer sure the light
That flickered on and off last night
Is gone today

It’s something that I can’t explain
Making me move on again
Heading for another place
Other sights and other points of view

Well I’ve got nothing to lose
I’ll live the life that I choose everyday
And keep on watching for clues ’till I’ve found
‘Till I’ve found the sweetest thing

I hear it softly speaking
I’m gonna find the sweetest thing

Everywhere there’re people wearing
Shades of old with new found flair
I’m looking for the color
That will shape me from my head
Down to my shoes

Well I’ve got nothing to lose
I’ll live the life that I choose everyday
And keep on watching for clues ’till I’ve found
‘Till I’ve found the sweetest thing

LONG WAY HOME

I hear them whisper while the fog slowly clears
I turn to kiss her as the dawn reappears
I check my bearings and relax with a smoke and that’s all
Off on a mission and the sun shines my way
Got their permission thumbs up big OK
I check the charts but they don’t go my way
‘Cause it’s a long way – a long way home

I just fly
Riding high on the lights in the sky
Here to do or die
And it’s a long way – a long way home

Above the clouds
I see far to much for me
Look into the future a little too easily
Think about my lost home
And what I would be and that’s all
We’re heading downward
Time to drop this payload
I feel my heart wrench
As the bombs do take hold
I feel my past and my future explode
‘Cause it’s a long way – a long way home

I just fly
Riding high on the lights in the sky
Here to do or die
And it’s a long way – a long way home

Sometimes in your life you got to choose sides
Can’t go for the ride
You must decide
Just can’t appease
I don’t why my chance passed me by
Could never tell lies
Whatever the size
That they would believe
So won’t you help me please

Heading back in this empty lone jet
I feel my pulse feel my eyes getting wet
It was just a fly by
I’m not over it yet
‘Cause It’s a long way – a long way home

I just fly
Riding high on the lights in the sky
Here to do or die
And it’s a long way – a long way home

I just fly
Riding high on the lights in the sky
Here to do or die
And it’s a long way – a long way home

CALLING

Watch out
Hesitations
Wrapped up in your rules and regulations
Make plans and reservations
You wanna get by
Alone
Constant danger
Company is a perfect stranger
Better be on your best behavior
If you wanna get by

It was calling calling
As we fell to the hard ground crawling
I wanna get
I’m gonna get
I gotta get by
It was calling calling
There we lay with the cool rain falling
To make a stand
For a long lost land

Bad time
No connection
Lose your mind to a deep reflection
Think about the resurrection
Give it one more try
No cure
No prevention
The road’s paved with good intentions
Hell bent to defy convention
Just do or die

It was calling calling
As we fell to the hard ground crawling
I wanna get
I’m gonna get
I gotta get by
It was calling calling
There we lay with the cool rain falling
Calling calling

I never had to think twice
I know it in my heart that I’ll come out all right
Hardly a need for advice
I know what I know and that is all
Heed the call

No cheers
No adulation
False hope for a quick salvation
No need for explanation
You wanna get by
No cause for celebration
We’ve lost a generation
Lack of communication
Another lie

It was calling calling
Time to move there’ll be no more stalling
I wanna get
I’m gonna get
I gotta get by
It was calling calling
So loud I could hear my heart sing
It was calling calling
Thunder blared and forces charging
I wanna get
I’m gonna get
I gotta get by
It was calling calling
Sharp blast
I feel my ears ring
Calling calling

NEXT TO YOU

Today you lead me astray
You’ve got a lovely way
Or saying that it’s OK
To go day by day
You think I’ll be right behind you
Anytime you’re calling my name
Is it all just a game
Is it something to hold on to
Or just something you maintain
In the things you say

They lead me astray
I feel my heart attacking
All the ways we have changed
Your in a rage
You leave my autonomic nervous system frayed
With every word that you say
‘Cause if you’re looking for the answer
That just isn’t why I came

I don’t know how to be next to you
Next to you I get nothing at all
And I can’t understand a single word you say
Does this mean nothing anyway

Like the games that we play
They push it away
Losing my turn I crash and burn
But I’m not afraid
I’m more like amazed
More like my eyes are wide open
For the first time in a hundred days
Despite the things that you say
You say what good are words
When words are worse then silence anyway

I don’t know how to be next to you
Next to you I get nothing at all
And I can’t understand a single word you say
You lose me

You confuse me
Even if I’m right
But you get it wrong
Who can erase the way
The things we say carry on
Same when your gone
Same how a lie that lingers
Brings it all down around your head
Like every word that we said
‘Cause If I understand you rightly
I’d be better off dead

I don’t know how to be next to you
Next to you I get nothing at all
And I can’t understand a single word you say
You lose me
You confuse me
I don’t know how to be next to you
When next to you I get nothing at all
And I can’t understand a single word you say
Does this mean nothing anyway

LIFE IS SO EASY

It’s a hard world
When you reach out for someone
It’s a hard world
And it’s getting harder when you find someone
There’s a real world
And it gets much realer when you love someone
I can feel your world
I can feel your world now my work’s begun

Life is so easy
When you don’t like anyone
Life is so easy
When you’re out there having fun

It’s a rough world
When you find yourself without the one you love
It’s a tough girl
That can get on top and rise above
Thinking it’s a waste of time
But I won’t say no
Thinking it’s a waste of time
But I always go way off the deep end

Life is so easy
When you don’t like anyone
Life is so easy
When you’re out there having fun
Life is so easy
When you don’t like any one
Life is so easy
When you’re out there hit and run

Thinking it’s a waste of time
But I don’t say no
Thinking it’s a waste of time
Still I always show
Thinking it’s a waste of time
Why do I always go way off the deep end

Life is so easy
When you don’t like anyone
Life is so easy
When you’re out there having fun
Life is so easy
When you don’t like anyone
Life is so easy
When you’re out there hit and run
It’s a hard world

CAROLINE

I’m too far gone
No way to turn around
I missed the warning signs
What led me one
Was never to be found
I should have read between her lines

Whenever I see a certain face
I think of Caroline
However you try to take her place
She’s there on the main line
I’m walking a straight line – no disgrace
Then I see Caroline
Where does it go
This darkness deep inside
I see her flames ignite the sky
As the home fires grow
I’m on the other side
And I can name the reason why

Whenever I see a certain face
I think of Caroline
However you try to take her place
She’s there on the main line
I’m walking a straight line – no disgrace
Then I see Caroline

Is there really something there
Does she vanish in thin air
Oh no
I’m not sure I really care
Another chance a stupid dare
But I will see her again

What do you know
When you take a look around
What do you take or leave behind
I know what I feel
And I’m surely not blind
But is she real or in my mind

Whenever I see a certain face
I think of Caroline
It must be the nature of the chase
That leads me to waste time
I’m walking a straight line – no disgrace
Then I see Caroline

Whenever I see you in that light
I think of Caroline
However you keep her from my sight
She’s there at the same time
It once seemed so logical and right
Now there’s Caroline

LOVE LETTER

Coffee and candy Sunday afternoon
Nothing demanding
You only do your best to stay awake
No reprimanding
Carried on too soon
Bad luck withstanding
You’ll have some help with what you have to say
You want to send a note
A little ray of hope
To get you through another day

You stop and stare
Get up and glare out the window
You never cared
For giving it up
Giving it up all the way
You best beware
Don’t tell ’em everything you know
Better take care
You’ll be living it up
Living it up someday

Writing a love letter
To bring two hearts together
Like writing a love letter
Could bring two hearts together as one

You get the lowdown
Something wrong something in the way
You make your showdown
State your case and how you feel today
Objective pronoun
Does it matter that much anyway
Don’t let it go down
Choose your words before they slip away
You won’t go out tonight
Everything will be alright
And what you need will stay with you

You stop and stare
Get up and glare out the window
Quite unaware
You’ll be giving it up
Give it up all the way
You best beware
Don’t tell ’em everything you know
Better take care
You’ll be living it up
Living it up someday

Writing a love letter
To bring two hearts together
Writing a love letter
Like writing a love letter
Could make it all better
Like writing a love letter
Could bring two hearts together as one

You won’t go out tonight
Everything will be all right
And what you need will stay with you
You stop and stare
Get up and glare out the window
You never cared
For giving it up
Giving up all the way
It’s never fair
And you’re not afraid to say so
You’ll get your share
You’ll be living it up
Living it up someday

Writing a love letter
To bring two hearts together
Writing a love letter
Like writing a love letter
Could make it all better
Like writing a love letter
Could bring two hearts together as one

FRAMED

I was framed
I’ve been called down and named
At the time of the crime
Well I – never mind
Things have been changed
I was blamed
And life has not been the same
Too tired to begin
My patience wears thin
But I won’t play their game

Well I’m running down the street
And I’m trying again to meet you
I’ll be hiding from the heat
When they all come down to greet you

It’s a shame
She never was the same
You were the one
Now I’ve been undone
Like it all was arranged
I’d explain
My innocence I’d retain
But they can never know why
I have love’s alibi
And I won’t say her name

Well I’m running down the street
And I’m trying again to meet you
I’ll be hiding from the heat
When they all come down to greet you
They won’t get their way
I’ve got nothing to say
I’m coming for you
I’m coming for you
I don’t care what they do
I’m coming for you

Well I’m running down the street
And I’m trying again to meet you
I’ll be hiding from the heat
When they all come down to greet you
You keep me hanging on the phone
I can’t leave well enough alone
I’m coming for you
I don’t care what they do
I’m coming for you

At the scene of the crime
One of the faces was mine
In deep with the law for what I never saw
I’m coming for you
I don’t care what they do
I’m coming for you

Suspect #1 for what I’ve never done
In deep with the law for what I never saw
I’m coming for you
I’m coming
I’m coming for you
