This Flight Tonight

Look out the left, the captain said
The lights down there, that's where you'll land
Saw a falling star burning
High above the Las Vegas sand
It wasn't the one that you gave to me
That night down South between the trailer
Not the early one that you wish upon
Not the Northern one that guides in the sailors

You've got that touch so gentle and sweet
But you've got that look so critical
Can't talk to you baby you know I get so weak
Sometimes I think that love is just mythical
Up there's a heaven, down there's a town
Blackness ev'rywhere and little lights shine
Blackness, blackness dragging me down
Come on light a candle in this heart of mine

Starbright, starbright
You've got the lovin' that I like
Turn this crazy bird around
Should not have got on this flight tonight

I'm drinkin' sweet Champagne
Got the headphones up high
Can't numb you, can't drum you out of my mind
They're playing 'goodbye baby, baby bye-bye
Oooooh, love is blind'
Up go the flaps, down go the wheels
Hope you've got your heat turned on baby
Hope they finally fixed your automobile
Hope it's better when we meet again, baby

Starbright, starbright
You've got the lovin' that I like
Turn this crazy bird around
Should not have got on this flight tonight
Should not have got on this flight tonight
