Lyrics A Passing Feeling - The Thermals

A Passing Feeling

Memory wise, memory flies
Memory barely satisfies
The past steals
It’s a passing feeling
Memory wise, memory flies
Memory rarely satisfies
The past tense
Tense and bleeding
You can choke or you can focus
I wanna forget
I don’t wanna forget
I don’t wanna forget
Memory knows, memory goes
Memory dulling but I’m learning slow
The passing heals
The past is healing
Memory knows, memory stops
The hum is gone when the power’s off
The passing heals
The past is healing
And you can choke on it or you can focus
I wanna forget
I don’t wanna forget
I don’t wanna forget
If you have no wishes
You can still have an opinion
Everybody’s got one
If you have the free time
I’m sure there’s something we can agree on
When you’re passing the blame
No one remembers the same
Memory wise, memory flies
Memory barely satisfies
The past steals
It’s a passing feeling
Memory knows, memory stops
The hum is gone when the power’s off
The passing heals
The past is healing
And you can focus or you can smoke it
I wanna forget
And I don’t wanna forget
I don’t wanna forget
I don’t wanna forget
I don’t wanna forget
