"Gypsy" is a song by the rock group Fleetwood Mac. Stevie Nicks wrote the song originally circa 1979, and the earliest demo recordings were recorded in early 1980 with Tom Moncrieff for possible inclusion on her solo debut Bella Donna. However, when Nicks' friend Robin Anderson died of leukemia, the song took on a new inspiration and Nicks held it over for Fleetwood Mac. "Gypsy" was the second single release and second biggest hit from the Mirage album following "Hold Me." "Gypsy" reached a healthy #12 on the Billboard Hot 100. The video for this song,which is directed by Russell Mulcahy, was the very first "World Premiere Video" on MTV in 1982
The song was featured in the "Silent Knight" episode of the television series Knight Rider.
Lyrics
So Im back, to the velvet underground Back to the floor, that I love To a room with some lace and paper flowers Back to the gypsy that I was To the gypsy... that I was
And it all comes down to you Well, you know that it does Well, lightning strikes, maybe once, maybe twice Ah, and it lights up the night And you see your gypsy You see your gypsy
To the gypsy that remains faces freedom with a little fear I have no fear, I have only love And if I was a child And the child was enough Enough for me to love Enough to love
She is dancing away from me now She was just a wish She was just a wish And a memory is all that is left for you now You see your gypsy You see your gypsy
Lightning strikes, maybe once, maybe twice And it all comes down to you
And it all comes down to you
Lightning strikes, maybe once, maybe twice And it all comes down to you
I still see your bright eyes, bright eyes And it all comes down to you I still see your bright eyes, bright eyes And it all comes down to you
I still see your bright eyes, bright eyes (she was just a wish) (she was just a wish) And it all comes down to you
Lightning strikes, maybe once, maybe twice And it all comes down to you
