She's just a night bird flyin' through the night
She's just a night bird making a midnight, midnight flight
Yeah, yeah
Well she's flyin' down to me, but until tomorrow
Got to set her free, set her free
So all we got, baby, is one precious night
All we got is one precious night

Throw off your blues and shoes and things
And lay it down under the bed
Just wrap me up in your beautiful wings,
Better hear what I say
Please take me thru your dreams,
Inside your world I want to be
Until tomorrow no tears will be shed
Hold on till the sun gets out of bed
Hold on, hold on, baby
Sail on, sail on, sail on
Sail on
