My Future Just Passed Lyrics

Shirley Horn My Future Just Passed

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 least reassure me
Sometimes a girl encounters resistance
Help Me to win this boy

Here are my arms, may she 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
