"Look ouGt the left," the captain said
"The lights down there, that's where we'll land"
CSaw a falling star burning
High above the Las Vegas sGand
It wGasn't the one that you gave to me
That night down south between the trailers
CNot the early one that you wish upon
Not the northern one that guides in the sGailors
YGou've got that touch so gentle and sweet
But you've got that look so critical
Can't tCalk to you babe, you know I get so weak
Sometimes I think that love is just myGthical
UGp there's a heaven, down there's a town
Blackness everywhere any little lights shine
BlCackness, blackness draggin' me down
Come on light a candle in this heart of mGine
StGarbright, stCarbright, yGou've got the lovin' that I like
Turn this crazy bCird around
ShFould not have got Con this flight tonGight
I'm drinkin' sweGet champagne, got the headphones up high
Can't numb you, can't drum you out of my mind
They're singin', "GoCodbye baby
Baby bye-bye
Ooh! Love is blGind"
GUp go the flaps, down go the wheels
Hope you got your heat turned on, baby
HCope they've finally fixed your automobile
Hope it's better when we meet agGain, babe
StGarbright, stCarbright, yGou've got the lovin' that I like
Turn this crazy biCrd around
ShoFuld not have got oCn this flight tonGight
ShoFuld not have got oCn this flight tonGight

"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

G C G

Starbright, starbright, you've got the lovin' that I like

Turn this crazy bird around

F C G

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

G C G

Starbright, starbright, you've got the lovin' that I like

Turn this crazy bird around

F C G

Should not have got on this flight tonight

F C G

Should not have got on this flight tonight
