[Verse 1]
Nightingale sing
Though it s blacker than the bog
Nightingale sing to me
I need to hear your song
[Verse 2]
Nightingale come
And perch upon my tree
A terrifying light s
Been flashing over me
[Chorus]
I would not bear to rest
I would not dare to dream
Till the nightingale came
And sang a song for me
[Verse 3]
She ll sing above the blasts
And the clothing singed by fire
She ll sing above the black smoke
Rising from the funeral pyre
[Verse 4]
Her heart a field in bloom
Her heart a sacred snow
Her heart a mirror blinding
All the greedy as they go
[Chorus]
I would not bear to rest
I would not dare to dream
Till the nightingale came
And sang a song for me
[Verse 5]
I cannot help but want
To sodder all the parts
Sodder back together
All the shattered hearts
[Verse 6]
Nightingale come
And perch upon my tree
The terrifying night s
Been crashing over me
[Chorus]
I would not bear to rest
I would not dare to dream
Till the nightingale came
And sang a song for me
[Chorus]
I would not bear to rest
I would not dare to dream
Till the nightingale came
And sang a song for me
