Nightjar And The Nightingale Songtext
Nightjar and the nightingale
I′m still awake because of you
Well, I guess that's what her kisses do
Oh-oh, we′re sharing summer stories with the white-eyed moon
And there are dreamers in those chestnut trees
They sing to me life's mysteries
Like the keepsake of those memories
Oh-oh, of the long hot days and the honeybees
Well, telltale nightingale
You've seen it all, you sing it better than me
You′ve seen it all, you sing it better than me
Well, quick, somebody hold my glass
I can′t let it pass, it fades so fast
And I just want today to last
Oh-oh, and that surprising little spell she cast
We walked a mile and sat a while
In tawny grass and we just laughed
And we listened to the summer birds
Oh-oh, they always seem to find the words
Well, telltale nightingale
You've seen it all, you sing it better than me
You′ve seen it all, you sing it better than me
I′m still awake because of you
Well, I guess that's what her kisses do
Oh-oh, we′re sharing summer stories with the white-eyed moon
And there are dreamers in those chestnut trees
They sing to me life's mysteries
Like the keepsake of those memories
Oh-oh, of the long hot days and the honeybees
Well, telltale nightingale
You've seen it all, you sing it better than me
You′ve seen it all, you sing it better than me
Well, quick, somebody hold my glass
I can′t let it pass, it fades so fast
And I just want today to last
Oh-oh, and that surprising little spell she cast
We walked a mile and sat a while
In tawny grass and we just laughed
And we listened to the summer birds
Oh-oh, they always seem to find the words
Well, telltale nightingale
You've seen it all, you sing it better than me
You′ve seen it all, you sing it better than me
