BORN IN TIME
Eric Clapton
from the album ?Pilgrim? (1998)
In the rolling 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 shady 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
Ahh baby why did I ever believe you
I believe you
In the rising curse
And the wings of nature will test every worth
I took you close and I felt the reason
And we were born in time
SOLO
Just when I knew who to find you went back
Just as the fire light was gleaming
You were snow you were rain
You were strife and you were pain
Oh baby can it be you?ve been scheming
Or was I dreaming
In the wings of mystery
In the foggy weather destiny
You're still so deep inside of me
And we were born in time
