Just Passin' Time

Dwight Yoakam

Just passin' time with everyone I meet
I'm just passin' time as I wander through the streets
Just passin' time, wrestlin' with thoughts that fight my sleep
She left behind, just passin' time

I'm just passin' time inside these empty rooms
I'm just passin' time where small lost hopes still loom
Just passin' time appears unlikely to heal any wounds
Love is kind, I'm just passin' time

And time hangs around more every day
Why I keep searching
For a place that old thoughts might stay
And not just end up right back in my heart's way?

Time don't ever answer nothin' new
Least not here lately
In any way that I could use
For figurin' out what's left to lose

I'm just passin' time with everyone I meet
I'm just passin' time as I wander through the streets
I'm just passin' time wrestlin' with thoughts that fight my sleep
She left behind, I'm just passin' time
