Wake up Monday morning looking at another 50 hour week
Hit the ground, black coffee, running on 2 hours of sleep
Damned old truck won't start and I've got some place to be by eight
You spin around in circles, cooking breakfast, running late too
You're stressed out, stretched thin, sometimes it's just like a zoo
We come home tired and weary after making it through on more day

And we fly by night
Wrapped around each other 'neath the pale moonlight
Everything in the great big world feels right
Baby, you and I, we fly by night

Well, traffic's backed up bumper to bumper for 15 miles
Call you on the phone said "Hang on babe, it's gonna be a while"
You say, "Hurry home lover, I'm wearing nothing but a smile for you"
Already got my coat off as I pull into the drive
Sometimes I think I must be the luckiest man alive
When you pull me down on the couch and slowly slide off my boots

And we fly by night
Wrapped around each other 'neath the pale moonlight
Everything in the great big world feels right
Baby, you and I, we fly by night

No, I wouldn't care if the sun never shined again

'Cause we fly by night
Wrapped around each other 'neath the pale moonlight
Everything in the great big world feels right
Baby, you and I, we fly by night
Baby, you and I, we fly by night
