Passerby - RIPÉ

If too much love is an overdose

Too many times, I have come so close

I guess I’m still learnin', though

Still, I fall too quickly to make it last

Skydivin' south through my hourglass

I want you, but you just pass

It looks like I’ll be singing

I will not be a passerby

There’s far too much love in life

For simply a quick goodbye

And I don’t mind if you keep your pride

Or if you run and hide

Just watch as I pass you by (Ey, yeah!)

It seems I’m a fool just tryin' to save the world

On both knees, beggin' you to join me, girl

And always your answer burns

'Cause while I recognize that you’ve been caged for most your life

It does not reconcile the fact that you won’t go outside

If that’s true, I guess goodbye

It looks like I’ll be singing

I will not be a passerby

There’s far too much love in life

For simply a quick goodbye

And I don’t mind if you keep your pride

Or if you run and hide

Just watch as I pass you by (Oh!)

I will not be a passerby

There’s far too much love in life

For simply a quick goodbye

And I don’t mind if you keep your pride

Or if you run and hide

Just go till you’re satisfied

I will not be a passerby

There’s far too much love in life

For simply a quick goodbye

And I don’t mind if you keep your pride

Or if you run and hide

Watch as I pass you by

Counting backwards from nine

Breathing deeply

Speaking softly

Caring intensely

Fighting boredom

Building a myth

Building a family

Making things better

Falling into something

Head over heels
