laura veirs – nightingale lyrics
nightingale sing
though it’s blacker than the bog
nightingale sing to me
i need to hear your song
nightingale come
and perch upon my tree
a terrifying light’s
been flashing over me
i would not bear to rest
i would not dare to dream
till the nightingale came
and sang a song for me
she’ll sing above the blasts
and the clothing singed by fire
she’ll sing above the black smoke
rising from the funeral pyre
her heart a field in bloom
her heart a sacred snow
her heart a mirror blinding
all the greedy as they go
i would not bear to rest
i would not dare to dream
till the nightingale came
and sang a song for me
i cannot help but want
to sodder all the parts
sodder back together
all the shattered hearts
nightingale come
and perch upon my tree
the terrifying night’s
been crashing over me
i would not bear to rest
i would not dare to dream
till the nightingale came
and sang a song for me
i would not bear to rest
i would not dare to dream
till the nightingale came
and sang a song for me
