The Nightingale

Come rest your head upon my chest
When your eyelids are heavy and your bodys all spent
We searched the whole sky for flashes of light
For stars burning up, but I fell for you there

Love, keep me up all night
Warm under winter skies
When gone is your sweet song, dear
Oh, do I wake or sleep?

We chased after the moon and watched as it died
But theres no light Ive seen like the one in your eyes
When the sun broke the night
It rose and it shined, and sang out:
If anyone doubts I bring the morning

Love, keep me up all night
Warm under winter skies
When gone is your sweet song, dear
Oh, do I wake or sleep?

I sailed out on my own to find myself
And all I realized is home was right there all along
You are, Love, an anchor in the storm
So pray the winds will blow and carry me home

Love, keep me up all night
Warm under winter skies
When gone is your sweet song, dear
Oh, do I wake or sleep?
