In Passing

All thoughts, all dreams,
They come and go,
And passing quickly, die unshared

A smile, a touch,
A simple soul
Is all I need to take me there

Although I've changed,
Although I've grown,
My heart is still without a song

Just let me have,
Just let me know,
Before my life can pass along

If I can feel,
Then I will fly,
Forsaking every idle care

And I will live,
And I will die,
Content to be a moment shared.
