Crossed the line around the changes of the summer,
Reaching out to call the color of the sky
Passed around a moment clothed in mornings faster than we see
Getting over all the time I had to worry,
Leaving all the changes far from far behind
We relieve the tension only to find out the master’s name
Down at the end, round by the corner
Close to the edge, just by a river
Seasons will pass you by
Even Siberia goes through the motions
Hold out and hold up
Hold down the window (Outboard, river)
Hold out the morning that comes into view (Bluetail, tailfly)
River running right on over my head
Gonna ride across the river
Deep and wide
Ride across the river to the other side
You can see the mornin’, but I can see the light
Try, try, try, let it ride
While you’ve been out runnin’, I’ve been waitin’ half the night
Try, try, try, let it ride
And would you cry if I told you that I lied?
And would you say goodbye or would you let it ride?
And would you cry if I told you that I lied?
And would you say goodbye or would you let it ride?
In this world I’m living in, I see the light
Sins are gone, now I know what is wrong and right
Morning came on slowly, pushing back the night
It’s good times now that I can see the light
Morning has broken like the first morning
Blackbird has spoken like the first bird
Praise for the singing, praise for the morning
Praise for them springing fresh from the world
Morning girl
Was that you last night
Crying on the radio
Beggin’ for a way to go
To go back where love
Wasn’t jumbled so?
I heard it in the night, words that thoughtless speak
Like vultures swooping down below on the devil’s radio
I hear it through the day, airwaves getting filled
With gossip broadcast to and fro on the devil’s radio
Oh yeah, gossip, gossip, oh yeah
(Ooh) girl, I gotta know
Gotta get the gossip when we talkin’ on the phone like
(Ooh) buzzin’ round the world
I don’t wanna be, wanna be, be a gossip girl
Oh, oh, telephone line, give me some time
I’m living in twilight
Oh, oh, telephone line, give me some time
I’m living in twilight
Okay, so no one’s answering
Well, can’t you just let it ring a little longer, longer, longer? Oh
I’ll just sit tight, in shadows of the night
Let it ring forevermore, oh-whoa
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Help! I’m stepping into the Twilight Zone
Place is a madhouse, feels like being cloned
My beacon’s been moved under moon and star
Where am I to go now that I’ve gone too far?
The visions dancing in my mind
The early dawn, the shades of time
Twilight crawling through my windowpane
Am I awake or do I dream
The strangest pictures I have seen?
Night is day and twilight’s gone away
With your head held high
And your scarlet lies
You came down to me
From the open skies
It’s either real or it’s a dream
There’s nothing that is in between
((“Twilight,” Electric Light Orchestra))
Get down now and roll around me
Get down now and be my queen
Get down now and roll around me
Chinese dance around the queen
Twilight double leader
Comin’ home to feed her
Charioteer, already been here
Determination structure
Every time I get high
You wanna come down
Every time I get hot
You say you wanna cool down
You say it’s enough
In fact, it’s too much
Every time I wanna get down, get down, get down
Get down on it)
Come on and
(Get down on it)
If you really want it
(Get down on it)
You’ve got to feel it
(Get down on it)
Get down on it
Do a little dance
Make a little love
Get down tonight
Get down tonight
Well, it’s a marvelous night for a moondance
With the stars up above in your eyes
’Neath the cover of October skies
End of October
The sleepy brown woods seem to
Nod down their heads to the Winter.
All the leaves are brown (all the leaves are brown)
And the sky is gray (and the sky is gray)
I’ve been for a walk (I’ve been for a walk)
On a winter’s day (on a winter’s day)
I’d be safe and warm (I’d be safe and warm)
If I was in L.A. (if I was in L.A.)
If I were a carpenter
You were the lady
Would you marry me anyway?
Would you have my baby?
