Baby It's Tonight I Can't Get You Outta My Mind

This Flight Tonight

Look out the left, the captain said
The lights downward there that'southward where we'll land
I saw a shooting star burn up
Higher up the Las Vegas sands
Information technology wasn't the 1 that you lot gave to me
That night down south betwixt the trailers
Not the early ane
That you lot can wish upon
Not the northern one
That guides in the sailors

Oh starlight, star bright
You lot've got the lovin' that I like all right
Turn this crazy bird around
I shouldn't have got on this flight tonight

You got the touch and then gentle and sweet
But you've got that look then critical
Now I can't talk to you infant
I get so weak
Sometimes I remember love is just mythical
Up there's a heaven
Down there's a town
Black everywhere and footling lights shine
Oh blackness black dragging me down
Come on light the candle in this poor heart of mine

Oh starlight, star bright
You've got the lovin' that I similar all right
Turn this crazy bird around
I shouldn't have got on this flight tonight

I'one thousand drinking sugariness champagne
Got the headphones up high
Can't numb you out
Tin can't drum y'all out of my mind
They're playing Goodbye infant, Baby Goodbye
Ooh ooh love is blind
Up become the flaps downward go the wheels
I hope you got your heat turned on baby
I hope they finally stock-still your automobile
I hope it'southward better when we see over again baby

Starlight, star bright
You got the lovin' that I like all right
Plough this crazy bird around
I shouldn't have got on this flight this night
