Jeff Buckley - Night Flight lyrics
[Jeff Buckley - Night Flight lyrics]
Brother across the water
He sat laughin' as he wrote
The end's in sight
So I said goodbye to all my friends
And packed my hopes inside a matchbox
'Cause I know it's time to fly
Come on, meet me in the morning
Meet me in the middle of the night
The morning light is comin'
Don't it make you wanna go and feel alright
I just jumped a train that never stops
So now somehow I'll know I never
Finished payin' for my ride
Just n' someone pushed a gun into my hand
Tell me I'm the type of man to
Fight the fight that I'll require
Come on, meet me in the morning
Meet me in the middle of the night
The morning light is comin'
Don't it make you wanna go and feel alright
Oh, mama
Well I think it's time I'm leavin'
Nothin' here to make me stay
Whoa, mama, well it must be time I'm goin'
They're knockin' down them doors
They're tryin' to take me away
Please Mr brakeman, won't you ring your bell
And ring loud and clear
Please Mr fireman, won't you ring your bell
Tell the people they got to
Fly away from here
I once saw a picture of a lady with a baby
Southern lady, had a very, very special smile
We are in the middle of
A change in destination
When the train stops
All together we will smile
Oh, meet me in the morning
Won't you meet me in the
Middle of the night, night, night
Everybody know the mornin' time is comin'
Don't it make you wanna feel alright ah, ah
Yeah make me feel alright fly now, baby
Get to fly, yeah fly now, baby
