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...
