Dear Little Nightengale (Album Version)

Dear Little Nightingale - Michael Franks

Dear little Nightingale

How come you're cryin'

Have you forgotten

The sky you've been flyin' in

Both of us lonely but can beggars be choosers

We're singers of song but as lovers we're losers

Dear little Nightingale

Dear little Nightingale

Dear little Nightingale

Dear little Nightingale

Dear little Nightingale

Love is illusion

Paradise changes into pain and confusion

I've had enough

Of all this sensual poetry

We should fly higher

And find us a bo tree

Dear little Nightingale

Dear little Nightingale

Dear little Nightingale

Dear little Nightingale

Dear little Nightingale

Dear little Nightingale

Dear little Nightingale

We make the tunes rhyme

We sing alone in all this madness and moonshine

Off in the distance

Our own galaxy's glistening

And I know that somewhere

The light must be listening

Dear little Nightingale

Dear little Nightingale

Dear little Nightingale

Dear little Nightingale

Dear little Nightingale

Dear little Nightingale

Dear little Nightingale

Dear little Nightingale

Dear little Nightingale

Dear little Nightingale

Dear little Nightingale

Dear little Nightingale

Dear little Nightingale

Dear little Nightingale
