Nightjar And The Nightingale

Nightjar and the nightingale I'm still awake because of you Well, I guess that's what her kisses do Oh-oh, we're sharing summer stories with the white-eyed moon And there are dreamers in those chestnut trees They sing to me life's mysteries Like the keepsake of those memories Oh-oh, of the long hot days and the honeybees Well, telltale nightingale You've seen it all, you sing it better than me You've seen it all, you sing it better than me Well, quick, somebody hold my glass I can't let it pass, it fades so fast And I just want today to last Oh-oh, and that surprising little spell she cast We walked a mile and sat a while In tawny grass and we just laughed And we listened to the summer birds Oh-oh, they always seem to find the words Well, telltale nightingale You've seen it all, you sing it better than me You've seen it all, you sing it better than me
