In Passing Years Lyrics & Chords By Nancy Lamott

In passing years, it all looks the same
And just the names will change...
We all will love too many times
But just the friends remain...
And, so these things I’ll say to you
Over tea for two on a wasted day...
When two friends meet and share
I hope it’s you that still will care.

In passing years, we’ll speak of truth
And things we’ve learned since youth...
Youth bears no age; only the stage,
the lines, the first embrace...
And so that if that two people meet
And they fall in love, one strong, one weak
But soon it's clear they must contend
With honesty to find an end

Some endings glad, some endings sad,
Some strong, but most are weak...
We’ll sit with ours in a closing bar
No games, just friends remain...
And so these things I’ll say to you
Over tea for two on a wasted day...
When two friends meet and share,
I hope it’s you that still will care…
When two friends meet and share,
I hope it’s you that still will care.
