50 In the blinking stardust of a pale blue light
52 You're comin' thru to me in black and white
54 When we were made of dreams.
56 You're blowing down the shaky street,
57 You're hearing my heart beat
58 In the record breaking heat
59 Where we were born in time.
64 Not one more night, not one more kiss,
66 Not this time baby, no more of this.
68 Takes too much skill, takes too much will.
72 You came, you saw, just like the law
74 You married young, just like your ma,
76 You tried and tried, you made me slide
85 Where the ways of nature will test every nerve,
86 You won't get anything you don't deserve
87 Where we were born in time.
91 You pressed me once, you pressed me twice,
92 You hang the flame, you'll pay the price.
95 You were snow, you were rain
96 You were striped, you were plain,
103 In the hills of mystery,
104 In the foggy web of destiny,
105 You can have what's left of me,
106 Where we were born in time.

129 In the stardust of a pale blue light
131 I think of you in black and white
133 When we were made of dreams.
135 I walk alone through the shakin' street,
136 Listening to my heart beat
137 In the record breaking heat
138 When we were born in time.
145 you were gone, you came back
151 You were high, you were low
153 You were so easy to know
155 Oh babe, now is time to raise the curtain
162 Where the ways of nature will test every nerve,
163 I took you close and got what I deserved
164 When we were born in time.
169 who to thank, you went blank
170 And just when the whole
172 You were snow, you were rain
173 You were stripes, you were plain
180 In the hills of mystery,
181 In the foggy web of destiny,
182 I think of you from deep inside of me,
183 When we were born in time.

258 Not this time, I'll have no more of this.
260 It's much too cold, it's much too old
264 You came, you saw, just like the law
266 You married young, just like your ma,
268 Oh babe, how you loved me
272 with this fee - lin'.
