The Nightengale Lyrics

Artist: Jennifer Warnes
Album: The Well

Yesterday I thought that I walked alone
And that love was just a memory
But a nightingale
Followed me back home
Where my love was
Waiting there for me

I have lost my faith as lovers often do
When the storm clouds gather overhead
But a nightingale sang a note so true
That I knew Iâ‚¬â„¢d lost my fear instead

And to think that I said
Love was for fools
And that time would never heal
These old wounds
But the nightingale saved a prayer for me

In the twilight, he played a faithful true
I have heard the lark over the vale
And Iâ‚¬â„¢ve heard the lonesome whippoorwill
But the sweetest song is the nightingaleâ‚¬â„¢s
And I know Iâ‚¬â„¢ll never get my fill

And to think that I said love for fools and that time would never heal these old wounds
But the nightingale saved a prayer for me
In the twilight, he played a faithful tune
