The Nightengale

Yesterday, I thought that I walked alone

And that love was just a memory

But a nightingale followed me back home

Where my love was waiting there for me

I have lost my faith as lovers often do

When the storm clouds gather overhead

But a nightingale sang a note so true

That I knew I?d lost my fear instead

And to think that I said,"Love was for fools"

And that time would never heal

These old wounds

But the nightingale saved a prayer for me

In the twilight, he played a faithful true

I have heard the lark over the vale

And I've heard the lonesome whippoorwill

But the sweetest song is the nightingale?s

And I know I?ll never get my fill

And to think that I said,"Love for fools"

And that time would never heal these old wounds

But the nightingale saved a prayer for me

In the twilight, he played a faithful tune
