Beth Orton Picture

Orton found success as a musician late, having been more interested in acting during her early career. She first gained notice in 1995 for her vocals on The Chemical Brothers' track "Alive Alone" and is well known for her collaboration (stemming from a relationship) with William Orbitin which she lends her voice for the Strange Cargoalbums.

Pass in Time Lyrics

Beth Orton

Beth orton :
So much stays unknown till the time has come.
Did you imagine you could ever be so strong,
Then watch your fear just turn into relief?
Your sea of doubt become your own belief?
Though tears dont come to cry some grief away,
The tears will help to keep your need at bay.
So come on now, come on now, child.
Youre here just a while.
Come on now, come on now, child.
Youre here just a while.
A mother told me just before she died -(mmmm)
My mother told me just before she died, (mmmm)
oh darling, darling, dont you be like me.
You will fall in love with the very first man you meet.
But mama, mama, some will never know;
The love that you have is still holding my soul.

The years will help to keep your need at bay.
