our time is tonight lyrics
[verse 1]
the road was muddy, there was no electricity
the wind was a’whistlin’, shakin’ up a house by the sea
a man in a black suit on a dark horse came stealin’
the dog was a’restless howlin’ at a dev’lish moon
the old man was pacin’, swearin’ in an ancient tongue
the young girl was climbing from her window rung by rung

[chorus]
run, lover! run, lover! run, lover into the night!
your mind is made. forget about wrong and right
oh, run, lover! run, lover! run, lover into the night!
there’s a time for everything, and our time is tonight

[verse 2]
tell me, daughter, tell me where your daddy went wrong
i put food on the table and a house built safe and strong
mother, run to the back porch. swiftly! get my gun
he aimed at the stranger standin’ by the end o’ the lane
he was thinkin’ of his daughter, thinkin’ of the family name
then he put the gun down, said, “i’m not that kind of man.”

[chorus]
run, lover! run, lover! run, lover into the night!
your mind is made. forget about wrong and right
oh, run, lover! run, lover! run, lover into the night!
there’s a time for everything, and our time is tonight
[instrumental interlude]

[verse 3]
she climbed on the horse, road into a northwest wind
wrapped her arms around the stranger, whispered softly, “thanks for comin’.”
said, “giddy up, baby, and never look back again.”

[outro]
oh, run, lover! run, lover! run, lover into the night!
well, your mind is made. forget about wrong and right
oh, run, lover! run, lover! run, lover into the night!
yeah, your mind is made. forget about wrong and right
oh, run, lover! run, lover! run, lover into the night!
there’s a time for everything, and our time is tonight
there’s a time for everything, and our time is tonight
oooo…
