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
Song out of tune
A mantle of bright light shone
Down from a room
Come down in time...
I can 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...but I've
Walked almost all the way, and I
I ain't heard her call
And I'm gettin' to thinkin' if she's
Comin' at all
Come down in time...
I can 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 countin'
The stars... in the night
(1970 -- Bernie Taupin/Elton John)
