Come Down in Time Lyrics

A beautiful track from the 'Tumbleweed Connection' album

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 mantle of bright light shone... down from a 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... true love, like hers, 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!
