This Flight Tonight

David Knopfler, Nazareth

"Look out the left" the captain said "The lights down there that's where we'll land" Saw a falling star burning High above the Las Vegas sand It wasn't the one that you gave to me That night down south between the trailer Not the early one that you wish upon Not the northern one that guides in the sailors You've got that touch so gentle and sweet But you've got that look so critical Can't talk to you, babe, you know I get so weak Sometimes I think that love is just mythical Up there's a heaven, down there's a town Blackness everywhere a little light's shine Blackness, blackness draggin' me down Come on light a candle in this heart of mine Starbright, starbright, you've got the lovin' that I like Turn this crazy bird around Should not have got on this flight tonight I'm drinkin' sweet champagne, got the headphones up high Can't numb you, can't drum you out of my mind They're singin'-"Goodbye baby, Baby bye-bye, Ooh! love is blind" Up go the flaps, down go the wheels Hope you got your heat turned on, baby Hope they've finally fixed your automobile Hope it's better when we meet again, babe Starbright, starbright, you've got the lovin' that I like Turn this crazy bird around Should not have got on this flight tonight Should not have got on this flight tonight --- This Flight Tonight - Nazareth
