Song of the Nightingale

[Verse] In the moonlight's tender glow Nightingale sings soft and slow Hearts afar yet close they stay Love that's whispered night to day [Verse 2] Secrets hidden in the dark Forbidden love leaves its mark Silent dreams where shadows meet In the night their hearts will beat [Chorus] Song of the nightingale Love that will prevail Echoes through the night Forbidden but so right [Verse 3] Stars above they share our pain Raindrops blend with tears like rain In our hopes and silent pleas Love that shakes the tallest trees [Bridge] In the hush of twilight's sway Longing carries dreams away Near or far our hearts remain Tied together in love's chain [Chorus] Song of the nightingale Love that will prevail Echoes through the night Forbidden but so right
