Time is Passing (Live at the Young Vic, London, 26th April 1971)

[Verse 1]
Playing my guitar while my sister bangs the jar
The glass sets up a sound like people laughing
It's going to my brain and it's easing all my pain
I must hear this sound again 'cause time is passing

[Verse 2]
I'm walking by the sea and the shingle sings for me
Crabs are swimming down amongst the starfish
The rocks all clatter down and the seagulls fly around
But the whole trip rubs it in that time is passing

[Chorus]
Find it, I've got to hear it all again
My heart has heard the sound of harmony
Blind to it as my tears fall again
But it's only by the music I'll be free

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
There's something in the whisper of the trees
Millions hear it, still, they can't bеlieve
Therе are echoes of it splashing in the waves
As an empire of dead men leave their graves

[Verse 3]
Don't listen to people talk or to them selling souls
Don't listen to me or words from men above
Don't hear it in your needs and don't hear it in your greeds
Just hear it in the sound of time a-passing

[Chorus]
Find it, I've got to hear it all again
My heart has heard the sound of harmony
Blind to it as my tears fall again
But it's only by the music I'll be free

[Outro]
We'd like to play a song that will probably be, uh, released as a single pretty shortly
It's a bit, uh, untypical of the older Who single, but it's one we just feel somehow right about
We'll play it for you now and hope you feel the same way
It's called "Behind Blue Eyes"
