Nightingale

Before the morning comes Will I hear your song? Come little nightingale I won't be here for long When you're up there flying Do you care If there's no one else around? When your lover leaves you In the air Do you waver, do you fall? Now, while the moon is high Shall we, nightingale Duet all through the night? A pair of souls for sale Stars cluster glistening Captive till the dawn Patiently listening They've heard it all before Should I stay here or should I go? I couldn't bear to be alone Was it really love I saw? Oh, now I'll never know What is this I hear? Recognize that song Sweet little nightingale I knew you'd come along Soon when the morning comes We will both be gone So sing pretty nightingale Lead, I'll follow on
