In the quiet silent seconds I
Turned off the light switch and I
Came down to meet you in the
Half light the moon left while
Cluster of night jars sang some
Songs out of tune
Mantle of bright light shone
Down from a room

Come down in time
I still hear her say
So clear in my ear
Like it was today
Come down in time was the message she gave
Come down in time and I'll meet you half way

Well I don't know if I should have
Heard her as yet but a
True love like hers is a
Hard love to get and I've
Walked most all the way and I
Ain't heard her call and I'm
Getting to thinking if she's
Coming at all

Come down in time
I still hear her say
So clear in my ear
Like it was today
Come down in time was the message she gave
Come down in time and I'll meet you half way

There are women, women and some hold you tight
Some leave you counting the stars in the night
