Al Kooper - Come Down In Time lyrics

In the quiet silent seconds I
Turned off the light switch and I
I came down to meet you in
The half light the moon left
While a cluster of night jars sang
Some songs out of tune
A 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
A true love like hers is a hard love to get
And I've, i've walked most all the way and
I ain't heard her call and I'm
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 and women and
Some hold you tight
While some leave you counting the
Stars in the night
