Roxy Music - Nightingale [Konserthaus, Stockholm, Sweden]

Lyrics

Before the morning comes, will I hear your song

Come little nightingale, I won't be here for long

When you're up there flying, do you care

If there's no one else around?

When your lover leaves you in the air

Do you waver, do you fall?

Now while the moon is high

Shall we, nightingale,

Duet all through the night

A pair of souls for sale

Stars cluster glistening

Captive till the dawn

Patiently listening

They've heard it all before

Should I stay here or should I go?

I couldn't bear to be alone

Was it really love I saw?

Oh, now I'll never know

What is this I hear?

I recognise that song

Sweet little nightingale I knew you'd come along

Soon when the morning comes.

We will both be gone

So sing pretty nightingale

Lead, I'll follow on.
