Nightflyer

Yeah, I'm a midnight rider

Stone bona fide night flyer

I'm an angel of the morning too

The promise that the dawn will bring you, you

I'm the melody and the space between

Every note the swallow sings

I'm fourteen vultures circling

I'm that crawling, dying thing

I'm the smoke up above the trees, Good Lord

The fire and the branch that's burning, Lord

Maybe you were sleeping, Lord

But Mary she's not weeping no more, no, mm-mm

Yeah, I'm a midnight rider

Stone bona fide night flyer

I'm an angel of the morning too

The promise that the dawn will bring you, you, you

I'm the sick light of a hurricane's eye

I'm a violent lullaby

I'm six fireflies, one streetlight

I'm a suffocating summer night hm-mm, mm

I'm each of his steps on the stairway

I'm his shadow in the door frame

I'm the tap-tap of a lunar moth

I'm the stale beer on his breath hm-mm, hm-mm

His soul is trapped in that room

But I crawled back in my mother's womb

Came back out with my gold and my greens

Now I see everything

Now I feel everything, Good Lord

What the hell could they bring to stop me, Lord?

Nothing from the earth, nothing from the sea

Not a God Almighty thing

Yeah, I'm a midnight rider

Stone bona fide night flyer

I'm an angel of the morning too

The promise that the dawn will bring you, you, you

I'm the wounded bird, I'm the screaming hawk

I'm the one who can't be counted out

I'm the dove thrown into battle

I can roll and shake and rattle hm-mm, hm-mm

I'm the moon's dark side, I'm the solar flare

The child of the Earth, the child of the Air

I am The Mother of the Evening Star

I am the Love that Conquers All

Yeah, I'm a midnight rider

Stone bona fide night flyer

I'm an angel of the morning too

The promise that the dawn will bring you

Yeah, I'm a midnight rider

Stone bona fide night flyer

I'm an angel of the morning too

The promise that the dawn will bring you

You, you

You, you

You, you
