Lyrics
Just Passing Through - Christian Raphael/Steven Walters
Things I forgot but I'll never forget. The first time I saw ya and the last time we met. Then you bid me farewell, and somehow I knew you were and angel, just passing through.
Just passing through here, just passing on through. Heading for somewhere, I wish I knew. Your wisdom was simple, live a life that's true. You were an angel, just passing through.
I remember when you told me, if you dream just a little bit. You'll only live but a little bit, and I don;t want to live just a little bit. And if you give just a little bit, you'll only get but a little bit. So give it all you've got, give it your very best shot. Then when you've taken your last breath, you can really say no regrets no regrets.
I saw you last night and you whispered my name. 10,000 voices falling like rain. And you were smiling just like you used to do. You were and angel, just passing through.
Just passing through here, just passing on through. Like many before ya, and after will too. Our life's blood is passion, and our days here but few. We are all angels, just passing through. We are all angels, just passing through.
