In the quiet silent seconds I turned off the light switch |
|
And I came down to meet you in the half light the moon left |
|
While a cluster of night jars sang some songs out of tune |
|
A mantle of bright light shone down from a room |
|
|
|
Come down in time I still hear her say |
|
So clear in my ear like it was today |
|
Come down in time was the message she gave |
|
Come down in time and I'll meet you half way |
|
|
|
Well I don't know if I should have heard her as yet |
|
But a true love like hers is a hard love to get |
|
And I've walked most all the way and I ain't heard her call |
|
And I'm getting to thinking if she's coming at all |
|
|
|
Come down in time I still hear her say |
|
So clear in my ear like it was today |
|
Come down in time was the message she gave |
|
Come down in time and I'll meet you half way |
|
|
|
There are women and women, and some hold you tight |
|
While some leave you counting the stars in the night. |
