Lyrics
Find another songIn the lonely night
In the stardust of a pale moonlight
I think of you in black and white
When we were made of dreams
I walked alone through the shaky streets
Listening to my heart beat
In the record-breaking heat
When we were born in time
Just when I thought you were gone, you came back
Just 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?
In the rising curve
Where the ways of nature will test every nerve
I took you close and got what I deserve
When we were born in time
Just when I knew who to thank, you went blank
Just as the firelight was gleaming
You were snow, you were rain,
You were stripes and you were plain
Oh babe, can it be you've been scheming
Or was I dreaming?
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
