[Verse 1] I sat down in the booth Of that old city bar With the rain on the glass Thinking where you are And the streetlight outside Drawing lines on your face Just a fleeting soft sigh In this quiet place [Pre-Chorus] Now I’m staring at the crack in the wall Like it speaks of the past One small turn, one more breath And I’m free at last [Chorus] Afternoon of glass Watch the minutes pass One memory fading fast Afternoon of glass Nothing's gonna last Let it go and let it pass [afternoon of glass] [Verse 2] There's a man reading books At the table for two There's a boy holding out For a voice coming through There’s a crowd laughing loud And ignoring the time And I swear that the world Has a better rhyme [Pre-Chorus] So I toss all my fears to the side Hear the city awake Little things bring you hope With the breaths you take [Chorus] Afternoon of glass Watch the minutes pass One memory fading fast Afternoon of glass Nothing's gonna last Let it go and let it pass [afternoon of glass] [Bridge] If the day goes sideways Let it go, let it go If the luck runs so thin Let your own voice flow Step by step on the street Just a spark in the dark One small place That can strike a match in your heart [Final Chorus] Afternoon of glass Watch the minutes pass One memory fading fast Afternoon of glass Nothing's gonna last Let it go and let it pass [afternoon of glass] Afternoon of glass Yeah, I want it like that [End]
