Passenger Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I saw your face, stuck in a crowd
Silently screaming out loud
I felt the beat echo your heart
Throw me a line cause its too far
All that you want, all that you see
All that you thought that you believe
Is it enough? Do you think it's too much?
You say you only trust what you can touch

[Pre-Chorus]
All you got to do is reach out for it

[Chorus]
All that you want
Is standing right in front of you
All that you need
Is love
All that you want
Is standing right in front of you
All that you need
Is love


[Verse 2]
Walked to the ledge, put out my hands
Scared to the bones of where I'd land

Trade in my fears, trade in my thoughts
They disappear behind your walls
All that I want, all that I need
All that I thought I believed
Was it enough? Sure not too much?
Now you're the only thing that I can trust

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
