Nightingale
Music by Vincent Rose

[Verse 1]
Somewhere the nightingale is singing from above,
He promised that he'd be my messenger of love,
And I am yearning for his returning,
It seems that all I'm thinking of.

[Chorus]
Nightingale When you are singing tenderly,
Oh tell her nightingale,
That it's a lover's melody,

Just so when ever you are singing,
She'll know the message you are bringing,
Nightingale Bring back my love to me.

[Verse 2]
The nightingale knows why I'm feeling sad and blue,
Somehow I know that he is feeling lonesome too,
That's why he's heeding my tender pleading,
And sings to her the whole night thru.

[Chorus]
