Lyrics
Nightbird
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
And the summer became the fall
I was not ready for the winter
It makes no difference at all
'Cause I wear boots all summer long
My make up's dark and it's careless
Some circles around my eyes
Sometimes the real color of my skin
My eyes without any shadow
And when I call
Will you walk gently
Thru my shadow
The ones who sing at night
The ones who sing at night
The ones you dream of
The ones who walk away
Capes pulled around them tight
Cryin' for the night
Cry for the nightbird tonight
The winter is really here now
And the blankets that I love
Sometimes I am surrounded
By too much love
And when I call
Will you walk gently
Thru my shadow
The ones who sing at night
The ones who sing at night
The ones you dream of
The ones who walk away
Capes pulled around them tight
Cryin' for the night
Cry for the nightbird tonight
And when I call
Will you walk gently
Thru my shadow
The ones who sing at night
The ones who sing at night
The ones you dream of
The ones who walk away
Capes pulled around them tight
Cryin' for the night
Cry for the nightbird
Tonight
