Lyrics

Passing Through Air

[Verse 1]

Passing through air

You mix the stars with your arms

Walking through there

The doom of eternity balms

Skies of grey are not today

[Chorus]

Oh, don't you throw my love away

I need your loving, I need your loving

Oh, don't you pour down rain today

I need your love, I need your care

So much

So much

So much

[Verse 2]

Laughing through smiles

You lick my love with the years

Walking for miles

You cool my brow with your tears

Skies of grey are not today

[Chorus]

Oh, don't you throw my love away

I need your loving, I need your loving

Oh, don't you pour down rain today

I need your love, I need your care

So much

So much

So much

[Outro]

Oh, don't you throw my love away

I need your loving, I need your loving

Oh, don't you pour down rain today

I need your love, I need your care

Oh, don't you throw my love away

I need your loving, I need your loving

Oh, don't you pour down rain today
