Nightbird

[00:30.05] Some old hotel room in Memphis
[00:37.50] I see the city through the rain
[00:44.69] I'm just chasing me my time
[00:51.82] And remembering some pain
[00:59.18] See there once was a boy
[01:06.81] And on the street he'd surely die
[01:14.26] So the nightbird took him in
[01:21.81] And she taught him how to fly
[01:28.88] See the nightbird
[01:33.83] softly fly
[01:37.27] Why does she fly alone
[01:43.87] Is the moonlight just a flame
[01:50.80] for her memory
[01:52.44] Now she's gone
[01:58.20] Two bit bars and honky tonks
[02:04.80] Any pleasure can be found
[02:12.75] You can get just what you want
[02:20.15] If you lay your money down
[02:26.88] And lonely sailors do their drinking
[02:32.35] My, my, my how the brave men do die
[02:41.48] And the nightbird sells her pleasures
[02:48.75] Bringing tears to my eyes
[02:55.16] See the nightbird softly fly
[03:03.15] Why does she fly alone
[03:09.32] Is the moonlight just a flame for her memory
[03:18.07] Now she's gone
[04:46.78] So I guess I'll go out walking
[04:53.31] Lord, let the rain keep falling down
[05:01.34] I guess I'll go chase some memories
[05:07.86] On the dark side of town
[05:13.90] See the nightbird softly fly
[05:21.90] Why does she fly alone
[05:28.38] Is the moonlight just a flame for her memory
[05:36.58] Now she's gone
[06:18.36]
