[Verse 1]
After holding on to nothing for awhile
I glanced to see what waited there
A shadow leaning easy by a window
A scent of something recent in the air

[Verse 2]
Nothing runs faster than time at night
But time slows down every day
All those hours with nothing to do
Holding nothing again today

[Hook]
Sunny days can fool you
They can look wet with rain
And even words from a friend can bring back
The pain

[Verse 3]
Memories come back on their own
Birds fly south in the sky
Pictures are drawn pencil sketches at dawn
Wishes that I too could fly

[Hook]
[Outro]
All the pictures I see are smiling at me
But today I’m somebody new
Not really knowing just coming and going
A stranger just passing through
