Passing Words
Thru Lonely Nights and Endless Days
I ask Myself Why I fell this way.
You blew my mind early that night
The talk we had was out of sight.
The words I said meant nothing to you
I try to forget,but it's hard to do.
You got you way,but I lost Mine
It's hard to belive the troubles I find.
And I wonder "still" when I see you each
day.
Did the words I say, even pass you way?
