Pass Me By

(album: Slick Shoes - 1997)

I thought about my life, and what I've done this year
Sometimes even to afraid to think of my fears
I thought about that night, it was almost Christmas time
A memory so young but not so long ago

It seems like life just tries to pass me by
If only I knew what to do right now
Sometimes I seem so eager not to try
I'll just have to wait for Christmas time

I woke up late today, the feeling came and went away
Anxiety that thickens every day
So much wasted time, I've just got to clear my mind
I'll just fall asleep and dream of Christmas time

It seems like life just tries to pass me by
If only I knew what to do right now
Sometimes I seem so eager not to try
I'll just have to wait for Christmas time

It seems like life just tries to pass me by
If only I knew what to do right now
Sometimes I seem so eager not to try
I'll just have to wait for Christmas time

Why can't it be
Why can't it be like Christmas time

Can't it always be like Christmas time in memory?
I wish I could know what the future holds for me
I think life is like a gift opened everyday
I wish I could know, but I don't know
