The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Will's a broken down lover
Who's never been outside the city he lives in
He's got memories of better days
And he's floatin' in his dream
But tonight's the night that's gonna change his life
Gonna change the whole situation
Mercy just got off the train
Gets a cab at the station
Time and time ahead, coming in the clear
Lonely hearts, disappear
Cause Mercy's on her way and Will don't have to wait
Time and time for the day, anymore
Mercy's got enough of the now and then
Of her strait jacket existence
So she packs her bags and cuts her hair
And throws away the ribbons
Cause tonight's the night that's gonna change her life
Gonna change the whole situation
Will just turned the free sign off
Baby where can I take you
Time and time ahead, coming in the clear
Lonely hearts, disappear
Cause Mercy's on her way and Will don't have to wait
Time and time for the day
Who, who will stop the rain again
We will stop the rain and then....
Time and time ahead, coming in the clear
Lonely hearts, disappear
Cause Mercy's on her way and Will don't have to wait
Time and time for the day, anymore
