Time Passage

2025 runs too short and its days too fast

Looking for 2026,

hopefully,

2026 runs longer and its days slower,

fruitfully.

Al Stewart - Time Passage

It was late in December, 

the sky turned to snow

All round the day was going down slow

Night like a river beginning to flow

I felt the beat of my mind go

Drifting into time passages

Years go falling in the fading light

Time passages

Buy me a ticket 

on the last train home tonight

Well I'm not the kind to live in the past

The years run too short and the days too fast

The things you lean on are the thing

s that don't last

Well it's just now and then 

my line gets cast into these

Time passages

There's something back here that 

you left behind

Oh time passages

Buy me a ticket 

on the last train home tonight

Hear the echoes and 

feel yourself starting to turn

Don't know why you should feel

That there's something to learn

It's just a game that you play

Well the picture is changing

Now you're part of a crowd

They're laughing at something

And the music's loud

A girl comes towards you

You once used to know

You reach out your hand

But you're all alone, in these

Time passages

I know you're in there, 

you're just out of sight

Time passages

Buy me a ticket 

on the last train home tonight
