Come Down in Time

Come Down in Time

Elton John / Bernie Taupin

Universal–Songs of Polygram International Inc. (1970)

 

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 night jars sang some

Songs out of tune and a

Mantle of bright light shone

Down from a room

 

Come Down in Time

I still hear her say

So clear in my ears

Like it was today.

Come Down in Time

Was the message she gave

Come Down in Time

and I’ll meet you halfway.

 

Well i don't know if I should have

Heard her as yet but a

True love like hers is a

Hard love to find and I

 

Walked most all the way and I

I ain't heard her call

and I'm getting to thinking

Is she coming at all?
