Lyrics
[Verse 1]
In the lonely night
In the stardust of a pale moonlight
I think of you in black and white
When we were made of dreams
[Verse 2]
I walked alone through the shady streets
Listenin' to my heart beat
In the record breakin' heat
When we were born in time
[Verse 3]
Just when I thought you were gone, you came back
Yeah, when I was ready to receive you
You were smooth, you were rough
You were more than enough
Ah babe, why did I ever leave you or believe you?
[Verse 4]
In the rising curve
There the ways of nature will test every nerve
I took you close and got what I deserve
When we were born in time
[Verse 5]
Just when I knew who to thank, you went blank
Just as the firelight was gleamin'
You were snow, you were rain
You were stripes and you were plain
Oh babe, can it be you've been schemin'
Or was I dreamin'?
[Verse 6]
In the hills of mystery
In the foggy web of destiny
You're still so deep inside of me
When we were born in time
[Verse 7]
In time
In time
In time
