In the rolling night
In the stardust of a pale moon light
I think of you in black and white
When we were made of dreams
I walk alone through the shady streets
Listening to my heart beat
In the record-breaking heat
And we were born in time
Just when I thought you were gone
You came back
Just when I regretted to receive you
You were smooth, you were rough
You were more and enough
Ah babe, why did I believe it
I believe it in the rising curve
And the ways of nature will test every nerve
I took you close and got what I deserved
And 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 striped, and you were plain
Oh babe, can it be you've been scheming
Well I'd really be in the hills of mystery
In the foggy web of destiny
You're still so deep inside of me
And we were born in time
