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
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
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, women and
Some hold you tight while
Some leave you counting the
Stars in the night
