歌词
Verse 1:
High in the oak the nightingale sees,
A boy in tears with a heart on his knees.
Longing for love, he needs a red rose,
To dance with the dream girl he chose.
Under moonlight, the bird hears his plea,
"Only a rose can bring her to me."
Chorus:
So sing, nightingale, sing your sweet song,
For love, for the night that is long.
Bleed for the rose with your heart so true,
Love's price is a sacrifice, too.
Verse 2:
She flew to the garden, her hope like a star,
"Please give me a rose, no matter how far."
But the tree spoke of winter's harsh blow,
"No red can bloom in the cold and the snow."
Yet, love finds a way when the true heart sings,
Even the night can bear new wings.
Chorus:
So sing, nightingale, sing your sweet song,
For love, for the night that is long.
Bleed for the rose with your heart so true,
Love's price is a sacrifice, too.
Bridge:
In the dark, to the thorn, her breast she pressed,
Each note a petal, in crimson dressed.
Her melody a fountain of youth,
Turning pain into beauty, heartache to truth.
her breast she pressed,
Each note a petal, in crimson dressed.
Her melody a fountain of youth,
Turning pain into beauty, heartache to truth.
Verse 3:
But the dawn comes fast, and the rose is red,
Too late to see, the bird is dead.
The boy finds the bloom, his heart unaware,
Of the nightingale’s gift, her final prayer.
Chorus:
So sing, nightingale, sing your sweet song,
For love, for the night that is long.
Bleed for the rose with your heart so true,
Love's price is a sacrifice, too.
Outro:
But love is a gamble with fate and fear,
A jewel bought, and a rose left here.
A bird lies silent, her song is done,
The rose lies crushed, love’s price won by none.
Outro:
But love is a gamble with fate and fear,
A jewel bought, and a rose left here.
A bird lies silent, her song is done,
The rose lies crushed, love’s price won by none.
