In the quiet silent seconds
I turned out the light switch
and 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
and a mantle of bright light
shown down from a room
Come down in time
I still hear him say
so clear in my ear
like it was today
come down in time
was the message he gave me
come down in time
and I’ll meet you half way
well I’m not sure
if I should have heard him as yet
but a true love like his
is a hard love to get
I’ve walked most all the way
and I ain’t heard him call
and I’m gettin’ to thinkin’
if he’s coming at all
Come down in time
I still hear him say
so clear in my ear
like it was today
come down in time
was the message he gave me
come down in time
and I’ll meet you half way
