My Future Just Passed - Carmen McRae
You will find my past not spotless
If you care to delve
Twenty broken hearts and not less
Before I was twelve
But from it all I've stopped
From the parade I dropped
Hope the future loves I've started
To shelve
But
There goes the boy I dreamed all through school about
There goes the boy I'll now be a fool about
Ring down the curtain I'm certain at present
My future just passed
Don't even know if he has been spoken for
If he is tied the ties must be broken
For life can't be that way to wake me then break me
My future just passed
Stars in the blue tho' you're at a distance
You can at sure me
But sometimes a girl encounters resistance
Help me to win this boy
Here are my arms may he find illusion there
Look in my heart there is no confusion there
Now that I'm loving I'm living at last
My future just passed
Kiss my two lips remove all the rouge on there
Now that I'm loving I'm living at last
My future just passed
