Old Time lyrics

Wide black trees and a field of froth

Bird fly low and you and me

and the car are lost

Took a wrong turn somewhere

Into the old time,

into the old time for sure

The trees are black and history

Has dragged us down to our knees

In a cold time

Ah, everyone dreams have died

Wherever you are, darling,

I'm not that far behind

I'm not that far behind

By the side of the road

is a thing with horns

That steps back into

the trees and a child is born

Upon this trembling earth,

displays each day

Thrown across the

hallucination of your hair

A strip of ordinary sun,

a biblical sun

A colonial sun,

an enlightened sun

The same sun made

always glorious at your head

Well, stopping at a motel

and go jumping into bed

Just like the old time

Yeah, wherever you are, darling,

I'm not that far behind

A lunatic beauty and

a watery moon

You're melting by

the motel swimming pool

By the time I get

to Phoenix on the radio

Her moon to my shooting star

And I'm throwing my bags

in the back of the car

Just like the old time,

just like old time, baby

And I'm not coming back this time

Ah, like the old days, darling

Like the old days,

I'm not coming back this time

Ah, like the old days,

darling, like the old days

I'm not coming back this time

Like the old time,

like the old time

Wherever you are,

darling,

I'm not that far behind...............
