Lyrics the magnetic fields - The Way You Say Good-Night

So faraway and so alone
How could I ever take you home
You're beautiful, beautiful

You've got a devastating point of view
And everything you say is true
You're beautiful, beautiful

The night birds start to sing their favorite song
The way you say good-night
The night birds start to sing their favorite song
And the moon begins to sing

I kiss you and the sun goes down
How come it's always dark when you're around
You're beautiful, beautiful

The night birds sing their favorite song
The moon begins to sing
You're beautiful, beautiful

The stars begin their Busby Berkeley dance
The way you say good-night
And the night becomes a musical extravaganza
The way you say good-night

[Outro] [Repeat x3]
The way you say good-night
I dream of all day long
Oh, I could write a song
About the way you say good-night
