For A Nightingale

(album: 100 Acres Of Sycamore - 2011)

I would walk you home
And then I'd sail you to the door
Under white bulbs flashing
Cross the ocean's roar

You're a star
You're a star

I would tell you things
That I told nobody else
Put your arms inside my jacket
KIss me on the steps

You're a star
You're a star

My little heart would beat
When I saw your snow white feet
Eyes of blue, deep and wide
And your hair blows in the
Wind it hurts me darling

Do do do do do
Oh, here it comes
Do do do
It's gone in a flash
Do do do
Fills your lungs
Brings you back to life

As the seasons change
And the nights grew longer still
I'd wait for you in the lane
By your house upon the hill

You're a star
You're a star

My little heart would beat
When I saw your snow white feet
Eyes of blue, deep and wide
And your hair blows in the
Wind it hurts me darling

Do do do do do
Well here it comes
Do do do
It's gone in a flash
Do do do
Fills your lungs
Brings you back to life

I love you and I always will love you
I love you and I always will

Do do do do do
Well, here it comes
Do do do
It's gone in a flash
Do do do
Well, here it comes
Do do do
It's gone in a flash
Do do do
Well, here it comes
Do do do
It's gone in a flash
Do do do
It fills your lungs
Brings you back to life
