It was late in December. The sky turned to snow.
All'round the day was going down slow. Night, like a river, beginning to flow
I felt the beat of my mind go drifting into
time passages. Years go falling in the fading light.
Time passages. Buy me a ticket on the last train home tonight.

Well, I'm not the kind to live in the past.
The years run too short and the days too fast. The things you lean on are
things that don't last. Well it's just now and then my line gets cast
into these
time passages. There's something back there that you left behind.
Time passages. Buy me a ticket on the last train home tonight.

Hear the echoes and feel yourself starting
to turn. Don't know why you should feel that there's something to learn.

It's just a game that you play.
Well, the picture is changing. Now you're part of a crowd. They're laughing
at something, the music's loud. A girl comes toward you you once used to know.
You reach out your hand, but you're all alone in those
time passages. I know you're in there, you're just out of sight.
Time passages. Buy me a ticket on the last train home tonight.
