Nightbird Lyrics By Stevie Nicks

    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 eye makeup dark and it’s careless
    same circles around my eyes
    sometimes the real color of my skin
    my eyes without any shadow

    and when i call will you walk gently though my shadow
    the ones who sing at night
    the ones who sing at night
    the ones you dream of the ones who walk away
    with their capes pulled around them tight
    crying for the night
    cry for the nightbird tonight

    the winter’s 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 though my shadow
    it’s the ones who sing at night
    it’s the ones who sing at night
    the ones you dream of the ones who walk away
    with their capes pulled around them tight
    crying for the night
    cry for the nightbird tonight

    break

    and when i call will you walk gently though my shadow
    it’s the ones who sing at night
    it’s the ones who sing at night
    the ones you dream of the ones who walk away
    with their capes pulled around them tight
    crying for the night
    cry for the nightbird tonight
    and when i call will you walk gently though my shadow
    it’s the ones who sing at night
    the ones who sing at night

    and the darkened eyes through the net of the lace
    in the darkness it’s hard to see her face
    pulls back the net
    and you feel the touch of her fingers
    and you see she turns the eyes
    and you see the eyes of a nightbird
    the ones you dream of
    finally the night bird
    finally the night bird
    tonight
