Nightingale

Oh the world is still

It's quiet as a mouse, it's 3 am

Wide awake, trying to get the words out of my mouth

But I can't make a sound since you left me lying here in my bed 

While you're running off with him



Everything in my world was yours, when I held you tenderly

I was once in his shoes, I had everything to lose and so I did

It wasn't long ago when I could feel the breeze of you blowing on my skin

I could feel your touch as your arms were closing in

If I could muster a sound I'd sing this song out loud just like a Nightingale



I was driving fast with roses on my seat and headed home

I was late with dinner getting cold

When I was struck in the side of the car

And then I saw your face

I couldn't move, I couldn't say a word to you



Everything in my world was yours, when I held you tenderly

Oh now my world is caving in because you're sleeping next to him

If I could die

You bet your life I would



Because I can't feel the breeze of you blowing on my skin

I can't feel your touch as your arms are closing in

If I could muster a sound I'd sing this song out loud just like the Nightingale

The Nightingale



If the tables had been turned I could never go without you by my side

But I'm reminded everyday how

I can't feel the breeze of you blowing on my skin

I can't feel your touch as your arms are closing in

If I could muster a sound I'd sing this song out loud just like the Nightingale

The Nightingale



I can't feel the breeze of you blowing on my skin

I can't feel your touch as your arms are closing in

If I could muster a sound I'd sing this song out loud just like a Nightingale
