And the summer became the fall.
Eye make up is dark, and it's careless.
And when I call,
Winter is really here now.
And when I call,
And the darkened eyes,
I was not ready for the winter.
It makes no difference at all,
'Cause I wear boots all summer long.
Some circles around my eyes.
Sometimes the real color of my skin,
Is my eyes without any shadow.
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,
Cryin' for the night.
Cry for the nightbird tonight.
And the blankets that I love...
Sometimes, I am surrounded...
By too much love.
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,
Cryin' for the night.
Cry for the nightbird tonight.
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 nightbird,
Finally the nightbird.
Tonight.
