Born In Time

In the lonely night

In the blinking stardust of a pale blue light

You're comin' through to me in black and white

When we were made of dreams

You're blowing down the shaky street

You're hearing my heart beat

In the record-breaking heat

Where we were born in time

Not one more night, not one more kiss

Not this time baby, no more of this

Takes too much skill, takes too much will

It's too revealing

You came, you saw, just like the law

You married young, just like your ma

You tried and tried, you made me slide

You left me reelin' with this feelin'

On the rising curve

Where the ways of nature will test every nerve

You won't get anything you don't deserve

Where we were born in time

You pressed me once, you pressed me twice

You hang the flame, you'll pay the price

Oh babe, that fire

Is still smokin'

You were snow, you were rain

You were striped, you were plain

Oh babe, truer words

Have not been spoken or broken

In the hills of mystery

In the foggy web of destiny

You can have what's left of me

Where we were born in time
