[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
