  • You can ride high atop your pony
    I know you won't fall
    'Cause the whole thing's phoney.
    You can fly swinging from your trapeze
    Scaring all the people
    But you'll never scare me

    Bella Donna
    And we fight for the northern star

    No speed limit this is the fast lane
    It's just the way that it is here
    And you say I never thought it could

    Bella Donna we fight
    For the northern star

    And the lady's feeling
    Like the moon that she loved
    Don't you know that the stars are
    A part of us
    And the lady's feeling
    Just like the moon that she loved

    And you say I never thought it could
    Bella Donna
    Come in out of the darkness

    You are in love with
    And I'm ready to sail
    It's just a feeling
    Sort of captures your soul

    Bella Donna

    And the woman may be awestruck
    And the woman may truly care
    But the woman is so tired
    So the woman disappears

    Come in out of the darkness

    Bella Donna my soul

    Don't change baby please don't change
    And you say
    And your face becomes thin
    You never thought it could
    Come in out of the darkness
    Bella Donna

    You are in love with
    And I'm ready to sail
    It's just a feeling Writer/s: STEVIE NICKS
