She's just a nigh bird flyin' throught the night   Fly on   She's just a night bird making a midnight, midnight flight   Sail on, sail on   Well, she's flyin' down to me   But, 'til 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 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, yeah   Oh, carry me home   Please take me through your dreams   Inside your world I want to be      Until tomorrow no tears will be shed   Hold on 'til the sun gets out of bed   Hold on, hold on, baby   Fly on
