Nightjar and the nightingale,
I’m still awake because of you.
Well I guess that’s what her kisses do.
Oh we’re sharing summer stories with the wide eyed moon.
There are dreamers in those chestnut trees,
They sing to me life’s mysteries,
Like the keepsake of those memories,
Of the long hot days and the honey bees.
Well tell tale nightingale,
You’ve seen it all, you sing it better than me.
Well quick somebody hold my glass,
Can’t let it pass, it fades so fast,
And I just want today to last,
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 they always seem to find the words.
Well tell tale nightingale,
You’ve seen it all, you sing it better than me.
