|
In the lonely night, |
|
In the stardust of a pale moonlight, |
|
I think of you in black and white |
|
When we were made of dreams. |
|
I walked alone through the shaky streets, |
|
Listening to my heart beat |
|
In the record-breaking heat |
|
When we were born in time. |
|
Just when I thought you were gone, you came back |
|
Just when I was ready to receive you. |
|
You were smooth, you were rough, |
|
You were more than enough. |
|
Ah babe, why did I ever leave you |
|
Or bereave you? |
|
On the rising curve, |
|
Where the ways of nature will test every nerve, |
|
I took you close and got what I deserve |
|
When we were born in time. |
|
Just when I knew who to thank, you went blank |
|
Just as the firelight was gleaming. |
|
You were snow, you were rain, |
|
You were stripes and you were plain. |
|
Oh babe, can it be you've been scheming |
|
Or was I dreaming? |
|
In the hills of mystery, |
|
In the foggy web of destiny, |
|
You're still so deep inside of me |
|
When we were born in time |
