|
By the light of the waning moon |
|
Under a blueblack sky |
|
They talked the slow way home |
|
Of years passed closely by |
|
They caught only a casual look |
|
From strangers with things to do |
|
Only a loveless heart |
|
Could feel anything less than sure |
|
That they're still in the mood |
|
Still in the mood |
|
After the time has passed |
|
They were still in the mood |
|
You'd take the chimes of midnight |
|
To be the drum of your heart's desire |
|
And you'd change all you're golden rings |
|
For one time on the wheel of fire |
|
So take off your shabby coat |
|
Let all the leaves fall down |
|
Leave this stuff till morning |
|
And then come gently round |
|
To be still in the mood |
|
Still in the mood |
|
When the sun has come up |
|
We'll be still in the mood |
|
We're still in the mood |
|
Still in the mood |
|
After the time has passed |
|
We are still in the mood |
