This Flight Tonight lyrics

"Look out the left," the captain said

"The lights down there, that's where we'll land"

I saw a falling star burning up

Above the Las Vegas sand.

It wasn't the one that you gave to me

That night down south between the trailers

Not the early one that you can wish upon

Not the northern one that guides in the sailors.

Oh, star bright, star bright, you've got the lovin' that I like

All right

Turn this crazy bird around

Should not have got on this flight tonight.

You've got that touch so gentle and sweet

But you've got that look so critical now

I can't talk to you babe, I get so weak

Sometimes I think love is just mythical.

Up there's a heaven, down there's a town

Blackness everywhere any little lights shine

Blackness, blackness draggin' me down

Come on light the candle in this poor heart of mine.

Oh, star bright, star bright, you've got the lovin' that I like

All right

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 playin': "Goodbye baby,

Baby bye-bye.

Ooh! Love is blind."

Up go the flaps, down go the wheels

I hope you got your heat turned on, baby

I hope they've finally fixed your automobile

Hope it's better when we meet again, babe.

Star bright, star bright, you've got the lovin' that I like

All right

Turn this crazy bird around

Should not have got on this flight tonight.
