The Who — Time Is Passing Live at the Young Vic London 26 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"
