Will's a broken down lover Who's never been outside the city he lives in He's got memories of better days And he's floatin' in his dream But tonight's the night that's gonna change his life Gonna change the whole situation Mercy just got off the train Gets a cab at the station Time and time ahead, coming in the clear Lonely hearts, disappear Cause Mercy's on her way and Will don't have to wait Time and time for the day, anymore Mercy's got enough of the now and then Of her strait jacket existence So she packs her bags and cuts her hair And throws away the ribbons
Cause tonight's the night that's gonna change her life Gonna change the whole situation Will just turned the free sign off Baby where can I take you Time and time ahead, coming in the clear Lonely hearts, disappear Cause Mercy's on her way and Will don't have to wait Time and time for the day Who, who will stop the rain again We will stop the rain and then.... Time and time ahead, coming in the clear Lonely hearts, disappear Cause Mercy's on her way and Will don't have to wait Time and time for the day, anymore
