From the recording The World Passes By
Lyrics
Deep within a state
Beyond the known
Asleep or awake
Out here all alone
As the world passes by
Why ask why
For I’m living in a dream
The way it must be
I’m trying to make it real Searching for a scheme
And the world passes by
It makes me want to cry
But once in awhile Someone appears
With a loving smile
And a heart full of cheer
And the world passes by
And I don’t even care
And our souls take flight
Soaring in the sky
Swimming in the light
And feeling so high
Mais de temps en temps Quelqu’un apparaît
Avec un sourire affectueux.
Et un coeur plein de joie
Et le monde passe
Et je m’en fiche
Then I’m back in my state
All on my own
Could this be my fate
Out here all alone
And the world passes by
And that’s all right with me
As the world just passes by
It’s all so plain to see
