Time Is Passing

[Verse 1] I'm playing my guitar while my sister bangs a jar The glass sets up a sound like people laughing It's going to my brain and it's easing all my pain I must hear this sound again 'cause time is passing Mmm [Verse 2] I'm walking by the sea and the shingle sings for me The crabs are swimming down among the starfish The rocks all clatter down and the seagulls fly around But the whole trip rubs it in that time is passing [Chorus] Find it, I've got to hear it all again My heart has heard the sound of harmony Blind to it, as my tears fall again But it's only by the music I'll be free [Bridge] There's something in the whisper of the trees Millions hear it, still they can't believe There are echoes of it splashing in the waves As an empire of dead men leave their graves [Verse 3] Don't listen to people talk, or to 'em selling souls Don't listen to me or words from men above Don't hear it in your needs and don't hear it in your greeds Just hear it in the sound of time a-passing [Chorus] Find it, I got to hear it all again My heart has heard the sound of harmony Blind to it, as my tears fall again But it's only by the music I'll be free
