Verse 1
all was still, the night was young
shadows flickered in the evening sun
she stood there, all dressed in black
together now, no going back
i ran my hand across her face
she smiled at me, so full of grace
one last caress, i turned away
goodnight my dear, i heard her say

Chorus 1
wind in my hair
images rushing by
singing loudly, not a care
like flying through the sky
my pulse begins to race
my heart begins to sing
the sunshine on my face
like flying on the wing

Bridge 1

Verse 2
they came that night, took her away
to somewhere else, far far away
like demons, silent, they took flight
showed no mercy, no respite
i awoke with bleary eyes
the night was long, with thunderous skies
i went to greet her, empty space
and she was gone, without a trace

Chorus 2
wind in my hair
images rushing by
singing loudly, not a care
like flying through the sky
my pulse begins to race
my heart begins to sing
the sunshine on my face
like flying on the wing

Guitar Break

Bridge 2

Verse 3
the times we had together
the memories, they still shine
even though she's gone now
now that she's not mine
she'll always be a part of me
her spirit still shines through
the fog of disillusionment
goodnight my love, adieu

Chorus 3
wind in my hair
images rushing by
singing loudly, not a care
like flying through the sky
my pulse begins to race
my heart begins to sing
the sunshine on my face
like flying on the wing
