Manhattan Transfer - Twilight Tone Lyrics
When I hear this melodyThis strange illusion takes over meThrough a tunnel of the mindPerhaps a present or future time oh, ohOut of nowhere comes this soundThis melody that keeps spinning round & roundPyramidal locomotionFrom a mystic unknown zoneHearin the twilightHearin the twilight toneUnpretentious girl from memphisSaw the future through her third eyePeople came with skepticismPicking, testing her precision, no, wo, oh, ohSuddenly they heard this soundThis melody that keeps spinning round & roundA signpost up ahead is callingThrough the mystic unknown zoneHearin the twilightTwilight swept away, feelin the rhythmHearin the twilightTwilight swept away, ba da, loo da, ba da loo daHearin the twilightTwilight toneSubmitted for your approval. one mr. miller, whos aboutTo take a trip into oddness and obsolescene, through aZone whose boundaries are that of imagination.Accompanying him on this journey is the mesmerizingSound of the twilight tone.On a cold & rainy nightOne mister miller had a rare flightGlen was up there boppin a rhythmThen the engine stopped to listen with himPlay that beat, oh, ohSuddenly he heard this soundThis melody that keeps spinning round & roundNow he resides and plays tromboneIn the mystic unknown zoneHearin the twilight(ooooooh, twilight)Hearin the twilight(hearin the twilight)
