Twilight Songtext
von Electric Light Orchestra

The visions dancing in my mind
The early dawn, the shades of time
Twilight crawling through my windowpane

Am I awake or do I dream?
The strangest pictures I have seen
Night is day and twilight′s gone away

With your head held high and your scarlet lies
You came down to me from the open skies
It's either real or it′s a dream
There's nothing that is in between

Twilight
I only meant to stay a while
Twilight
I gave you time to steal my mind away from me

Across the night, I saw your face (time)
You disappeared without a trace (time)
You brought me here, but can you take me back?


Inside the image of your light (time)
That now is day and once was night (time)
You leave me here and then you go away

(It's either real or it′s a dream
There′s nothing that is in between)
Twilight (twilight)
Twilight (twilight)
Twilight (twilight)
I gave you time to steal my mind away from me

You brought me here, but can you take me back again?

With your head held high and your scarlet lies
You came down to me from the open skies
(It's either real or it′s a dream
There's nothing that is in between)

Twilight
I only meant to stay awhile (twilight)
Twilight
I gave you time to steal my mind

Twilight
I only meant to stay awhile (twilight)
Twilight
I only meant to stay awhile (twilight)


Twilight (twilight)
Twilight (twilight)
