Nightingale

Oh the world is still
It's quiet as a mouse, it's 3 am
Wide awake, I'm 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 song 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
