Name: Nightingale
Duration: P00H05M15S
Description: "He remembered her smile. He could not bring himself to remind her of who he was, in fear and in shame. He left her home long ago, and he hoped that she had forgotten him. Though despite his reluctance, he can’t seem to escape the emotional scarf that her words weave around him. Keeping him warm through the night, just as they did before."

lyrics

I only want to feel your love
But I am scared to feel
If only we knew
What to do with the time we have

I never want to change your mind
About the way you think of me
Despite all the uncertainty
Carelessly, drifting out to sea

Please tell me everything will
Be alright, when we fall asleep
And we will fall, and make sense of it all
The sun goes down, we breathe in the sound
And we will fly, and awake her sky

I never want to feel alone, again
I hear that you’re my friend
And that we will love
To the stories end

When will the mountain sing our song, to the sea
So that we could be
One with the world
And forever free

Please tell me everything will
Be alright, when we sleep at night
And we will fall, and make sense of it all
The sun goes down, we breathe in the sound
And we will fly, and awake her sky

Please tell me everything will
Be alright, when the curtain rise
The crowd will break, and the lights will fade
Though it’s not the end, and as you will see
This part was made for you and me
