We used to fly through the night

Slowly, so slowly, the raindrops came down from the skies,
I called for a taxi, no need to explain.
No, I won’t be coming back to you now, baby mine —
I’m just too tired of this magical pain.

Chorus:
We used to fly through the night ‘til the break of the day,
Woke up the neighbors with kisses and midnight fights.
But those wild feelings are gone — they have drifted away,
And now the streetlights are burning in place of our lights.

Verse 2:
No, don’t come walking me out — let’s not drag this on.
No more pretending that you really care.
I’ll try my best to forget you before too long,
And I won’t be unlocking that old love affair.

Chorus:
We used to fly through the night ‘til the break of the day,
Woke up the neighbors with kisses and midnight fights.
But those wild feelings are gone — they have drifted away,
And now the streetlights are burning in place of our lights.

Verse 3:
Don’t you worry — I won’t be crying tonight.
There’s still strength in my soul for a dozen more flings.
I’ll just write me a poem before morning light,
And maybe tomorrow I’ll give it some wings.

Chorus:
We used to fly through the night ‘til the break of the day,
Woke up the neighbors with kisses and midnight fights.
But those wild feelings are gone — they have drifted away,
And now the streetlights are burning in place of our lights.

Outro (Verse 1 reprise):
Slowly, so slowly, the raindrops came down from the skies,
I called for a taxi, no need to explain.
No, I won’t be coming back to you now, baby mine —
I’m just too tired of this magical pain.
