Lyrics:

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 nightjars sang some

songs out of tune and a

mantle of bright light shone

down from a room

come down in time

i still hear her say

so clear in my ears

like it was today.

come down in time

was the message she gave

come down in time

and i'll meet you halfway.

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

Walked most all the way and I

ain't heard her call and I'm

getting to thinking is she

coming at all

come down in time

i still hear her say

so clear in my ears

like it was today.

come down in time

was the message she gave

come down in time

and i'll meet you halfway.

There are women and women and

some hold you tight while

some leave you counting the

stars in the night.
