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?
|
I recognise 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.
