Robert Vincent - The Passage Lyrics

Don't you leave with nothing
Don't you wanna take something
Don't leave with nothing
Don't you wanna have a memory or two
A clue to say that you were here

Life is just so precious
Money comes and goes
But life is oh so precious
It's like the river flows
You get on and it goes
You know you're never turning back

You can stick to your views
They'll guide you
You can hazard a guess
It'll provide you
With whatever you need to move on, to get on
And this passage you see is all calm, its all calm

You took what I'd been giving
I can't explain as such
But you took what I'd been giving
It wasn't up to much
If I remember at the time
You were oh so very kind to me

So I wrote this to say sorry
I'm sure you're not that fussed
But I had to just say sorry
With all the thought it took
I'll hold my head with pride
And let the world decide my fate
