I had little time to wonder why And even less time to cry Until you passed me by Until you passed me by,
There were strange sights in the sky Rarely tears streaming from my eyes Thought I could detect all the lies But there are some things logic defies,
If there were ever a crack in the other side Maybe discover why they've always lied Somehow help the good turn the tide Rather than watch the world slide,
Climb down into that rabbit hole Find truth that will satisfy my soul Knowing how love has taken its toll Perhaps I should have played a different role,
I had little time to wonder why And even less time to cry Until you passed me by Until you passed me by,
Like the tailor of Panama The coke dealer from Bogota Slap another clip in my saw The earth pulls you down like a claw,
Sooner or later there's no more fun And there's no where you can run Your bikini lines from the sun Another good reason to come undone,
Love the mirage on the horizon Sunsets on the bones of a bison Trying to find a prodigal son A trigger finger on my gun,
I had little time to wonder why And even less time to cry Until you passed me by Until you passed me by.

A Different Role
I had little time to wonder why
And even less time to cry
Until you passed me by
Until you passed me by,
There were strange sights in the sky
Rarely tears streaming from my eyes
Thought I could detect all the lies
But there are some things logic defies,
If there were ever a crack in the other side
Maybe discover why they've always lied
Somehow help the good turn the tide
Rather than watch the world slide,
Climb down into that rabbit hole
Find truth that will satisfy my soul
Knowing how love has taken its toll
Perhaps I should have played a different role,
I had little time to wonder why
And even less time to cry
Until you passed me by
Until you passed me by,
Like the tailor of Panama
The coke dealer from Bogota
Slap another clip in my saw
The earth pulls you down like a claw,
Sooner or later there's no more fun
And there's no where you can run
Your bikini lines from the sun
Another good reason to come undone,
Love the mirage on the horizon
Sunsets on the bones of a bison
Trying to find a prodigal son
A trigger finger on my gun,
I had little time to wonder why
And even less time to cry
Until you passed me by
Until you passed me by.
