Fly on through the night wind
Take a star to her for me
Please whisper I love her
Tell her wait for me

Here it seems so cold now
How I miss her arms around me
Soar nightbird of love
Make her wait for me

You have wings you know I let you go
Almost every night
But loneliness can dull the shine
Of even the bright moonlight

Nightbird, fly on, fly on
Nightbird, sing her my song

Oh before you leave
Take this band of gold with you
And if you can find her
Tell her I am true

Cause you have wings you know I let you go
Almost every night
But loneliness can dull the shine
Of even the bright moonlight
Nightbird, fly on, fly on
Nightbird, sing her my song
Nightbird, fly on, fly on
Nightbird, fly on
