Come Down In Time - Elton John (Tumbleweed Connection 2 of 10)
COME DOWN IN TIME
Elton John
Tumbleweed Connection (1970)
In the quiet, silent seconds, I
I turned off the light switch, and I
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 mantel of bright light shone
Down from her 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
A true love like ours is a
A hard love to get and I
I've walked most all the way and I
I ain't heard her call and I
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.
