Elway Lyrics
"Passing Days"

Smoke considers settling in an ashtray
In a dingy bar where romances are born
The sound of Denver seeping from the jukebox
But no Country Road could ever take us home

She speaks like raging tide against the coastline
I'm rendered ragged by the things that she might know
The whiskey and this feeling bring me back to better times
Let it go, let it go, let it go

(Chorus)
Wait, you remind me, of someone I used to love
But wait, she revived me, but that was so long ago
Now the passing days on the outside feel great
And it never ever rains
The city is burning, right now I'm dying
It's hard to wash your hands clean
Of these dying days

And sweaty palmed I'll swallow down my cocktail
Like the things I feel but know I shouldn't say
Every morning I away to my sighs of reassurance
It's okay, it's okay, it's okay

(Chorus)
Wait, you remind me, of someone I used to love
But wait, she revived me, but that was so long ago
And now the passing days on the outside feel great
And it never ever rains
The city is burning, right now i'm dying
It's hard to wash your hands clean

Of these dying days(x4)

Well there I go digging graves for every single pretty girl
Pretty soon, there'll be no more earth to move
When I'll be filling holes with the longing in my soul
It's not one of those things that's meant to lose

Now the passing days on the outside feel great
And it never ever rains
The city is burning, right now I'm dying
It's hard to wash your hands clean.
