Gypsy woman told me
I've got to walk the night
Like a fallen angel
I'm blinded by the lightI need to find a love child
Who never did no wrong
A superstitious woman
To love me all night longLet me love youMy heart beats like a hammer
I'm scared of being alone
I never thought I'd see the day
I'd curse when I was bornCaught up in a fever
Running hot and cold
I need a sweet young woman
To satisfy my soulLet me love youNighthawk, nighthawk
Shadow of the light
A loner in the city streets
Crying in the nightNighthawk, nighthawk
Howling at the sky
When the moon is on the rise
You'll hear the nighthawk cryLet me love you
Let me love youLet me love you
Let me love you
Let me love youGypsy woman told 'em
I've got to walk the nigh
Like a fallen angel
I'm blinded by the lightCaught up in a fever
Running hot and cold
Need a sweet young woman
To satisfy my soulLet me love youNighthawk, nighthawk
Shadow of the light
A loner in the city streets
Crying in the nightNighthawk, nighthawk
Howling at the sky
When the moon is on the rise
You'll hear the nighthawk cryLet me love you
Let me love you
Let me love you
