(One night)
You came on over to me
(Late night)
We shared a drink or three
(Night night)
I read a proverb to you
(That night)
She left a room with a view
Take all the time
Time that you want to
Make up your mind
Mind how you go
Take me in time
Time to the music
Take me away to the twilight zone
(Last night)
We stayed up late in a dream
(My, oh, my)
We read a play with no theme
(Lifetime)
In which our love pursues
(My time)
In which I spend with you
Now I know that the lonely days are gone
Don't you know that I can see?
Like a summer day that's always long
We repel the wet of tears
As the shadow lighten up the day
Through the cons we laugh away
Like a windy day that's always wrong
We take shelter where we can
(Last night)
I came on over to you
(My, oh, my)
We played a song or two
(Lifetime)
I read a poem aloud
(My time)
I wrote a song for thee
Now I know that the lonely days are gone
Don't you know that I can see?
Like a summer day that's always long
We repel the wet of tears
As the shadow lighten up the day
Through the cons we laugh away
Like a windy day that's always wrong
We take shelter where we can
