It Was Time For Me To Be With Her - Jonathan Richman

Oh, oh, oh, oh

It was time for me to be with her

Someone, someone, someone

I recognized to be from the other world

Somehow I recognized her, recognized her

Recognized her right away from the other world

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Somehow I recognized her, recognized her

Recognized her right away from the other world

And when we lay close together

With our hair so close together

I feel the plague of the other world

It was our time and now there’s a garden for me

It was our time and now there’s a home for me

It was our time and now there’s an open door

It was our time and now there’s a platform

To the other world

Oh, oh, oh

It must have been time for me to be with her

A person I recognized at first sight

As being from the other world

Somehow I recognized her right away

Somehow I recognized her right away

From the other world

What is life without searching for

What’s behind this world?

So sure, so certain and so sure

What is life without a search for

The dark and the shadowed, the obscure?

It was time for me to be with her
