Twilight Zone / Twilight Tone lyrics

When I hear this melody

This strange illusion takes over me

Through a tunnel of the mind

Perhaps a present or future time

Out of nowhere comes this sound

This melody that keeps spinning 'round & 'round

Pyramidal locomotion

From this mystic unknown zone

Hearin' the twilight

Hearin' the twilight, twilight tone

Unpretentious girl from Memphis

Saw the future through her third eye

People came with skepticism

Picking, testing her precision, oh, oh, whoa

Suddenly they heard this sound

This melody that keeps spinning 'round & 'round

A signpost up ahead is calling

Through the mystic unknown zone

Hearin' the twilight

Hearin' the twilight

Hearin' the twilight

Twilight tone

On a cold and rainy night

One Mister Miller had a rare flight

Glen was up there boppin' a rhythm

Then the engine stopped to listen with him

Play that beat, ho, oh

Suddenly he heard this sound

This melody that keeps spinning 'round & 'round

Now he resides and plays trombone

In the mystic unknown zone

Hearin' the twilight

Hearin' the twilight...
