Nightbird Lyrics - Stevie Nicks

And the summer became the fall 

I was not ready for the winter 

It makes no difference at all 

'Cause I wear boots all summer long 

My eye make up is dark and it's careless 

Some circles around my eyes 

Sometimes the real color of my skin 

Is my eyes without any shadow 

And when I call 

Will you walk gently 

Thru my shadow 

The ones who sing at night 

The ones who sing at night 

The ones you dream of 

The ones who walk away 

Capes pulled around them tight 

Cryin' for the night 

Cry for the nightbird tonite

And so the winter is really here now 

And the blankets that I love 

I am surrounded sometimes 

By too much love 

And when I call 

Will you walk gently 

Thru my shadow 

The ones who sing at night 

The ones who sing at night 

The ones you dream of 

The ones who walk away 

Capes pulled around them tight 

Cryin' for the night 

Cry for the nightbird tonite 

Photos 

And the darkened eyes 

Thru 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 

Tonite
