Born In Time Lyrics - Pilgrim - Eric Clapton

In the lonely night, 

In the stardust of a pale moonlight, 

I think of you in black and white 

When we were made of dreams. 

I walked alone through the shaky streets, 

Listening to my heart beat 

In the record-breaking heat 

When we were born in time. 

Just when I thought you were gone, you came back 

Just when I was ready to receive you. 

You were smooth, you were rough, 

You were more than enough. 

Ah babe, why did I ever leave you 

Or believe you?

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

In the rising curve, 

Where the ways of nature will test every nerve, 

I took you close and got what I deserve 

When we were born in time. 

Just when I knew who to thank, you went blank 

Just as the firelight was gleaming. 

You were snow, you were rain, 

You were stripes and you were plain. 

Oh babe, can it be you've been scheming 

Or was I dreaming?

In the hills of mystery, 

In the foggy web of destiny, 

You're still so deep inside of me 

When we were born in time.
