Time Don't Pass By Here
Last night I dreamed I laid me down and died And lots of people came and signed their name But only a few of them cried
They put me in a big pine box And dropped me in a deep dark hole And the preacher said a prayer for my lost soul Well they covered me up and left me there to rot
And the guy next to me said, 'Friend, I see That's a mighty fine box you've got' He seemed kind of friendly
So I asked him the time of day I heard him laughing Then I know I heard the devil say
Time don't pass by here no more Just empty space and fear No plane to fly, no wine to pour Only pain to replace the tears
You can never recall your memories You can never retrace the years You'll cry but no one hears 'Cause time don't pass by here
Well, I woke up And wiped a tear away from my eye And me and Mary Jane made a paper plane Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Just to see how high we'd fly
She's just like each passing day She's there and then she's gone And I'm the one that's always gettin' stoned
Seems it's hard for me to find where I belong But I think that I'm the happiest When I'm singing the saddest songs
When it comes my turn to die And when I'm really gone I hope the devil writes these words Upon my tombstone
Time don't pass by here no more Just empty space and fear No plane to fly, no wine to pour Only pain to replace the tears
You can never recall your memories You can never retrace the years You'll cry but no one hears 'Cause time don't pass by here
You'll cry but no one hears 'Cause time don't pass by here
