Lyrics

Pass In Time (a.k.a. For a While)

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

So much stays unknown 'til the time has come,

Did you ever imagine you could feel so strong,

And what you fear just turn into relief,

Yes see your doubt become your own belief,

Though tears don't come to cry some grief away,

The tears will help to keep your need at bay,

So come on now come on now child,

Your here just a while,

Come on now come on now child,

Your here just a while,

My mother told me just before she died,

My mother told me just before she died,

Oh darling darling don't be like me,

You will fall in love with the very first man that you meet,

But mother mother some will never know, The love that you

have installed in my soul, So come on now come on now child,

Your here just a while, Come on now come on now child, Your

here just a while, Your here just a while, Your here just a

while, Some much stays unknown 'til the time you are strong,

Did you ever imagine you could be so strong, And watch

your doubt just turn into belief, You see you pain become

its own relief, Though tears don't come to cry some grief

away, The years will help to keep your need at bay, So come

on now come on now child, Your here just a while, Come on

now come on now child, Your here just a while, Come on now

come on now child, Your here just a while, Come on now come

on now child, Your here just a while, Your here just a

while, Your here just a while, And you might as well smile,

You might as well smile, 'Cos tomorrow you just don't know,

It will pass, It's gonna pass, It will pass in time, It will

pass in time, It will pass, It's gonna pass in time, It's

gonna pass, It's gonna pass in time, It will pass in time, I

will pass, It's gonna pass, It's gonna pass.
