NIGHT FLIGHT
© 2016 -
music and words by John R. Black, ℗ 42nd Street Music Seattle

Your letter came in the morning mail
With tear drop stains over I love you
Somehow I knew you’d never fail
To realize now was the time to see it through
To realize now was the time to see it through


I left you on that morning a million years ago
Flyin’ out in the morning sun
Now jet streams are bringin’ me back home to you
Back to the one I know I love
Back to the one I know I love


Night flight comin’ on
To a kaleidoscope sky
Full of soft mooned clouds
Movin’ dreams and memories of you
Movin’ dreams and memories of you


Night flight comin’ on
To a love we know
Will never outgrow
The far beyond of the tailored sky
The far beyond of the tailored sky


Will you meet me
When my plane lands at dawn
Comin’ in with the mornin’ sun
Will you be there to tell me that it’s alright
And that I’m the one you know you love
And that I’m the one you know you love


Wheels touchin’ down
Ready to meet the sun
And you are the one
Jet stream winds are bringin’ me to see
Soon movin’ on you and me
Soon movin’ on you and me.
