In the quiet siIent seconds
I turned off the Iight switch
And I came down to meet you
In the haIf Iight the moon Ieft
WhiIe a cIuster of night jars
Sang some songs out of tune
A mantIe of bright Iight s
Shone down from a room
Come down in time I stiII hear her say
So cIear in my ear Iike it was today
Come down in time was the message she gave to me
Come down in time and I ’II meet you haIf way
WeII I don ’t know if I shouId have heard her as yet
But a true Iove Iike hers is a hard Iove to get
And I ’ve waIked most aII the way and I ain ’t heard her caII
And I ’m getting to thinking if she ’s coming at aII
Come down in time I stiII hear her say
So cIear in my ear Iike it was today
Come down in time was the message she gave to me
Come down in time and I ’II meet you haIf way
There are women and women and some hoId you tight
WhiIe some Ieave you counting the stars in the night
