Oh-oh
Doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo
I’m sitting here alone again
Waiting for you to come see me now
As time passes by
In the blink of an eye
I know I’ll get to see you somehow
You are sitting home another night
Waiting for someone to hold you tight
Time passes by
So quick indeed
This time you’re slipping away from me
It’s been a long, cold, hard winter
It was a long, drawn-out spring
I took no wrong when you saw nothing in me
But our love was something nice to see
We were sitting alone on the beach
Letting all the sand between our feet
As time passes by
Blink of an eye
Amazing how things ain’t what they used to be
Ain’t what they used to be…
It was the shortest summer
The fall was so abrupt
Thought you’d be happy with the way things were
But I guess it wasn’t enough
I am outside sitting, writing this song
You could have guessed that all along
Time passed me by
So quick indeed
And you’re the thing that I’m missing
I wrote this song all last night
Tried to make the lyrics fit just right
But I’m stilling having trouble with this very last part
But I know it’ll come from my heart
But I know it’ll come from my heart…
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
Reflecting on the Passage of Time
“Time Passes By” by Charlie Puth offers a gentle meditation on the inevitability of change and the bittersweet nature of memories. Through heartfelt verses, Puth captures moments of longing and nostalgia as he recounts time spent waiting for someone special, the seasons slipping by, and the realization that relationships evolve. The recurring motif of time—whether it’s a cold winter, a fleeting summer, or the quick blink of an eye—highlights how swiftly circumstances and emotions can shift. The song’s introspective tone and simple, melodic refrains create an atmosphere that is both comforting and melancholic, inviting listeners to reflect on their own experiences with love and loss.
