    Sweet Nightingale

    Sweet Nightingale

    Oh, sweet Nightingale
    your voice a silver light
    the darkness grows pale

    With you my heart cannot fail
    through the grayness catch a sight
    oh, sweet Nightingale

    Held dear as the sacred grail
    elixir of my delight
    the darkness grows pale

    When left so alone and frail
    winter winds blow afright
    oh, sweet Nightingale

    Shelter me from pounding hail
    may your warmth hold tight
    the darkness grows pale

    Upon our dreams we sail
    bitter storms we fight
    oh, sweet Nightingale
    the darkness grows pale

    Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before. ~ Edgar Allan Poe
