So the nightingale does sing Love is upon the wing Her voice it melts hearts made of stone She sings for all of those alone The nightingale does sing The lovers night she brings The drunks sing in the square The lovers their love share So the nightingale does sing Love is upon the wing The nightingale she sings of death Of love and what of life is left The nightingale does sing The lovers night she brings And all the drunks in all the bars Her voice it opens every scar
