This Flight Tonight Lyrics

    (copyright 1971 joni mitchell pub. corp.)


    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 trailers
    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 any little lights 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.
