One night 
You came on over to me
Late night
We shared a drink or three
Night night
I read a proverb to you
That night
She left a room with a view

E            D
Take all the time
A             E
Time that you want to
E            D
Make up your mind
A           E
Mind how to go
E          D
Take me in time
A           E
Time to the music
E        G          F#       E
Take me away to the twilight zone

Last night
We stayed up late in a dream
My oh my
We read a play with no theme
Lifetime
In which our love pursues
My time
In which I spend with you

La laa lalalalaa 2x
      E                         A
Now I know the lonely days are gone
          C               E
Don't you know that I can see
         E                       A
Like a summer day that's always long
     C              E
We repel the wet of tears
         E                     A
As the shadows lighten up the day
             C             E
Through the cons we laugh away
        E                       A
Like a windy day that's always wrong
         C                E
We take shelter when we can

Last night
I came on over to you
My oh my
We played a song or two
Lifetime
I read a poem aloud
My time
I wrote a song for thee

      E                         A
Now I know the lonely days are gone
          C               E
Don't you know that I can see
         E                       A
Like a summer day that's always long
     C              E
We repel the wet of tears
         E                     A
As the shadows lighten up the day
             C             E
Through the cons we laugh away
        E                        A
Like a windy day that's always wrong
         C                E
We take shelter when we can
