Quiet now, oh listen now
I hear its thrill in every bone
Ghostly face, painted lips
Divine kiss
Life was never crazier
And I was never lovelier
And highwaymen in midnight masks
Would whisk me away
Sweep, sweep me off my feet
Carefree in that dress
Waiting in the silence
I would be your moonlight Bess
Quiet love, oh listen love
I feel its thrill in every bone
Wait between the shadows for
A pair of pretty eyes
Life was so much crazier
And I was so much lovelier
And highwaymen in midnight masks
Whisked me away
Sweep, sweep me off my feet
Take me to your hidden
Hollow on the hill
Make me your highway girl
Highwayman, I'm riding nigh
Midst midnight's trees and devil's sky
Watch between the shadows for
A pair of desperate eyes
Sweep, sweep me off my feet
Take me to your hidden
Hollow on the hill
Capture me your highway girl.
