lyrics

I never saw the crowd
Until it passed me by
Never laughed aloud
And never dared to cry
Never made a sound
And couldn’t hear the noise

I never felt the sun
Until it passed me by
Never climbed the hills
And never touched the sky
Sheltered from the rain
And shaded from the heat
I never felt the sun
Until it passed me by

I never saw the time
Until it passed me by
Knew that it had gone
And often wondered why
The ticking of a watch
The houses full of clocks
I never saw the time
Until it passed me by

I never saw the chance
Until it passed me by
Might have changed the world
And never dreamed to try
Maybe I’d have failed
And now I’ll never know
I never saw the chance
Until it passed me by

I never heard your voice
Until it passed me by
I never felt your love
Until you let it die
The things I hoped you’d say
And wish I hadn’t said
I never heard your voice
Until it passed me by
