bruce sudano - ode to a nightingale lyrics
the nightingale is singing
the healing has begun
the bells of freedom ringing
welcoming the dawn
the light of hope is beaming
challenging the sun
sing nightingale sing…
let me hear the voices
shouting to the sky
a grateful hallelujah
relieved and sanctified
with bold determination
to keep the dream alive
sing nightingale sing…
from the top of the mountain
to the bottom of the wishing well
soar as high as the eagle
to the belly of a broken world
sing nightingale
democracy is breathing
it lives by hope and change
for sins that were committed
there’s penance to be paid
we’re kneeling at the altar
in the shadow of the saint
sing nightingale sing…
from the top of the mountain
to the bottom of the wishing well
soar as high as the eagle
to the belly of a broken world
sing nightingale
we marched right up to the edge of disaster
stopped and turned around just in time
shrouded by a veil of the darkness
that nearly left us blind
we held on to the vision
we never lost the light
history is speaking
of struggle hard and real
brave victories of glory
hurt that scars reveal
if the past informs the future
with truth our wounds can heal
sing nightingale sing…
from the top of the mountain
to the bottom of the wishing well
soar as high as the eagle
to the belly of a broken world
sing nightingale
sing nightingale
hey, hey, hey…
