Lyrics
Donna Summer
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.
The aging count, he waits on you
Beneath the ivy-walled tower
The chimes ring out the summer light
Also marks the hours
Marks the passing hours
Tonight's child is quick and slim
Leaves her work and master
Her heart is beating to the score
The thoughts that drive it faster
An age that drives it faster
What's my name, what's my name?
Hers is a world that's metal blue
No time to slow to slumber
Every line is evidence
Every new month's thunder
Rattling limbs like thunder.
The aging count closes his eyes
He's long since past crying
What use anger to decry?
If you want Donna sighing.
Prefer Donna sighing.
What's her name, what's her name?
