(henry paul, henry gross) Only one comes 'round every million years She's a midnight rider on a shooting star Makes the whole world ring like a big guitar Well she flagged me down with the devil's sway It was somewhere down that lost highway She's a lifeboat on the raging sea She's the high note in the harmony She takes away my pain and sorrow Loves me like there's no tomorrow This, i can't resist In my life i realize I have never known a sweeter kiss Honey what i missed Got a piece of heaven right here on earth And believe me i know what it's worth She's an island dream on a rainy day She's a desperado's hideaway Hey now boys, take a look right here Only one comes 'round every million years She's a midnight rider on a shooting star Makes the whole world ring like a big guitar
