The Way You Said Good-night Lyrics - The Magnetic Fields

So faraway and so alone how could I ever take you home 

You're beautiful, beautiful You've got a devastating point of view 

and everything you say is true You're beautiful, beautiful 

The nightbirds start to sing their favorite song: 

"The Way you Say Good-Night" The nightbirds start to sing 

their favorite song and the moon begins to sing I kiss you 

and the sun goes down How come it's always dark when you're around 

You're beautiful, beautiful The nightbirds start to sing 

their favorite song The moon begins to sing You're beautiful, beautiful 

The stars begin their Busby Berkeley dance: "The Way You Say Good-Night" 

and the night becomes a musical extravaganza: The Way You Say Good-Night 

The way you say good-night I dream of all day long Oh, I could write a song 

about the way you say good-night...
