Only Passing Through

Mark Lennon


Well I've been here before
To the place where love decides
To slowly wither away
And move on to something more
Well there ain't no changing
When love makes up her mind
You hang on with all your heart
But you get left behind
So you just move out of the way

Chorus
Cause there ain't nothing you can do
When love is Only Passing Through
Well you can ease the pain
With the softness in your smile
But you eyes give it away
There's no need to explain
I don't regret it
I wish I just had more time
I held love for one small moment
But she was never mine
And now we go our separate ways

Chorus
Why can't you stay, let me hold you a little longer
Can't you settle down, why you always have to wander
You fill one heart, and you painfully leave another

I know it won't be long
I'll be talking to myself
Watching leaves hit the ground
And you'll have already gone
And I'll save the pieces for the day you return
And I'll be ready to ignore the lessons I never learned
But 'til then I'll be alone
Cause there ain't nothing you can do
When love has turned her back on you

Chorus
