Nightingale 歌詞

 

I built my house beside the wood

So I could hear you singing

 

And it was sweet and it was good

 

And love was all beginning

Fare thee well my nightingale

 

'Twas long ago I found you

Now all your songs of beauty fail

 

The forest closes 'round you

The sun goes down behind a veil

 

'Tis now that you would call me

So rest in peace my nightingale

 

Beneath your branch of holly

Fare thee well my nightingale

'Twas long ago I found you

Now all your songs of beauty fail

 

The forest closes 'round you

Fare thee well my nightingale

 

I lived but to be near you

 

Tho' you are singing somewhere still

 

 

I can no longer hear you
