Just Passin' Time

(Dwight Yoakam)



I'm just passin' time

With everyone I meet

I'm just passin' time

As I wander through the street

I'm just passin' time

Wrestlin' with thoughts that fight my sleep

She left behind

I'm just passin' time.



I'm just passin' time

Inside these empty rooms

I'm just passin' time

Where small, lost hopes still loom

Just passin' time

Appears unlikely to heal any wounds

Of this kind

I'm just passin' time.



Time hangs around more everyday

While I keep searchin' for a place

That old thoughts might stay

And not just end up

Right back in my heart's way.



--- Instrumental ---



Time don't never answer nothing new

Least not here today

In any way that I could use

For figurin' out

What's left to lose.



I'm just passin' time

With everyone I meet

I'm just passin' time

As I wander through the street

I'm just passin' time

Wrestlin' with thoughts that fight my sleep

She left behind

I'm just passin' time...
