Back in a Moment...

Back in a moment,
     i'm slipping away...
It's a small price to pay
     With you more often
but still i want more
     Won't you open up the door?

See you next Thursday
     or Saturday night,
stay up till the morning's light
    What are you saying,
you haven't the time?
     Here, have some of mine...

Say, don't i know you,
     haven't we met?
Though i can't remember when
     Going through oceans,
motions and scenes,
can't remember where i've been...

The tune is still turning
     inside of my head
though it's way past time for bed
     My mind is screaming,
i can't feel a thing
     and still i have to sing...

Catching a sunrise,
     the colors that blend...
the hours i could spend
     Caught in a minute,
a measure of time
     and images sublime...

  1. more lyrics... this is a song i wrote in '79 but Bernie Taupin has shown me that good lyrics can be poetry as well... if you don't believe that read the lyrics to "The Greatest Discorvery" by Elton John... peace
