Nightbird

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 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 through 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 through 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 through my shadow?
It's 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
And when I call, will you walk gently through my shadow?
It's the ones who sing at night
The ones who sing at night

Through the dark and the net of the lace
Pulls back the net and it's hard to see her face
And you feel the touch
It's the touch that you want so much
'Cause when I call, you can walk gently through my shadow
Just like the white winged dove
