Have you lived your whole life Regretting some decision That you made at a time A choice was needing to be made Have you lived your whole life There are things you can't hide They're always going to surface By a look in your eyes One that betrays all your resistance Just a look in your eyes Watch what you leave behind Look out for your wandering mind Cut all of your darkest ties You can learn to do right In the city tonight There's a window that's reflecting The same pattern of light That's in the stars that I am seeing Though they were never as bright All the stairs that I climbed I counted to her doorway They came one at a time As passed the hours that I was with her And it was all through the night Watch out what you leave behind Look out for your wandering mind Cut all of your darkest ties You can learn to do right You can learn to do right In the passing of time The mistakes that you've been making Like the light in your eyes Don't it all seem to be fading In the passing of time In the passing of time In the passing of time
