Birds of Passage -- Highwaymen in Midnight Masks

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.
