Highwaymen in Midnight Masks - Birds Of Passage

Quiet now, oh listen now

I hear its thrill in every bone

Ghostly face, painted lips

Divine kiss

Life was never crazier

And I was never lovelier

And highwaymen in midnight masks

Would whisk me away

Sweep, sweep me off my feet

Carefree in that dress

Waiting in the silence

I would be your moonlight Bess

Quiet love, oh listen love

I feel its thrill in every bone

Wait between the shadows for

A pair of pretty eyes

Life was so much crazier

And I was so much lovelier

And highwaymen in midnight masks

Whisked me away

Sweep, sweep me off my feet

Take me to your hidden

Hollow on the hill

Make me your highway girl

Highwayman, I’m riding nigh

Midst midnight’s trees and devil’s sky

Watch between the shadows for

A pair of desperate eyes

Sweep, sweep me off my feet

Take me to your hidden

Hollow on the hill

Capture me your highway girl.
