[Verse 1]

I think it's time for a change

'Cause things feel out of touch

And I'll watch you walk away again

[Verse 2]

Well, this feels like too much (Can you take it away?)

And things won't go my way

Now I'll have to fade away my friend

[Chorus]

So pass slowly

And carry me down

And render me lonely

When you're not around

[Verse 3]

I need to shake off this pain

But courage takes too much

So I have to walk away again

[Verse 4]

Oh, God, I miss your touch (Can you take it way?)

The way you'd keep me safe

I won't let you fade away my friend

[Chorus]

So pass slowly

And carry me down

Remember me only

When you're not around

[Bridge]

Oh, yeah

Can't you stay a while longer?

Oh, yeah

Won't you stay? God, please stay

[Chorus]

And pass slowly (It's time for a change)

And whittle me down ('Cause things feel out of touch)

And render me lonely (I'll watch you walk away again)

When you're not around

[Chorus]

So pass slowly (Feels like too much)

And let me down easy (And things won't go my way)

Render me lonely (Now I'll have to fade away my friend)

When you're not around
