  • She flies through the night on silver wings
    With a smile, no obligation
    She says, "Walk with me, I'll take you down
    Through the storm to your destination"

    She says, "Hold me now, I'll take you there
    To the dawning of a new creation"

    Midnight moonlight lady
    Bird on the wing, she is flying to greet me
    Bird on the wing, she is flying to me

    The night is waiting
    She must know how I feel
    In the neon darkness
    She is all that is real

    I know it must be a dream
    Will she be gone tomorrow
    But tonight the world is still
    And I can feel no sorrow
    But tonight the world is still
    And I can feel no sorrow

    Midnight moonlight lady
    Bird on the wing, she is flying to greet me
    Bird on the wing, she is flying to me

    She says, "Take me from this wilderness
    I want to be where I won't be lonely
    Take me from this wilderness
    I want to be where I can see
    Take me from this wilderness
    I want to be where I can be free, yeah"

    See the shadows dancing
    'Cross the moonlight in her eyes
    See a vision forming
    And it comes as no surprise
    Could it be a warning
    That love grows before it dies

    See the shadows dancing
    'Cross the moonlight in her eyes
    See a vision forming
    And it comes as no surprise
    Could it be a warning
    That love hurts before it satisfies

    She keeps her secrets with her eyes
    Like the moon behind a silver cloud
    She holds my memory with her smile
    Am I dreaming now, spinning 'round
    Let her take it all away

    Every time I turn around
    I know she is there
    Every time I turn around
    She's everywhere

    Midnight moonlight lady
    Midnight moonlight lady

    Come on, shine your light on me, baby
    I want to learn the secrets of the night
    Let the moonlight smile on me, baby
    Show me the secrets of the night
    Midnight moonlight lady

    Bird on the wing, she is flying to me Writer/s: JAMES PATRICK (JIMMY) PAGE, PAUL RODGERS
