[Intro][Live][Spoken word] [Crowd applauds] "Every song has a home. Somehow this one always finds its way back to me... This is Nightingale's Song" [Acoustic guitar begins] [Intro] [guitar playing and girl humming] [Verse] When we set forth upon this journey With longing hearts, With lingering steps, The nightingale’s song drifted across the land …through forests and lakes, Memories of the past Glowed like embers in the ash, And somewhere out there The nightingale sang on alone [guitar playing and girl humming] [Chorus] Therefore… Henceforth from this …broken heart of mine Therefore… Henceforth from this …depth of yearning of mine Therefore… Henceforth …from the core of my soul [guitar playing and girl humming] [Verse] Shadows of the past linger long, As echoes of joy fade away, In silence, the lone nightingale’s song Carries a bittersweet melody, Silver dreams beneath the dusk grow dim, In the embrace of shadows, And you, nightingale, sing on Of hope yet to come [guitar playing and girl humming] [Chorus] Arise… Arise above …shattered dreams Arise… Arise beyond …the weeping streams Arise… Arise into …the first light of hope [guitar playing and girl humming] [Bridge] Beneath the veil of night, the stars awaken, Melodies rush across the sky, Those fair dreams, those tattered hopes, Are reborn in the nightingale’s song [guitar playing and girl humming] [Chorus] Reach… Reach toward …the fleeing light Reach… Reach beyond …the whispered ruin Reach… Reach into …the gentle hue of dawn [guitar playing and girl humming] [Bridge] When morning’s glow paints the horizon As a new day is born, The nightingale’s song dispels old memories, A melody that banishes sorrow and despair [guitar playing and girl humming] da… da… dam… da… da… dam… da… da… dam… [guitar playing and girl humming] [Chorus] Seize… Seize of this …spark of hope Seize… Seize of this …new life Seize… Seize of the nightingale’s song …its melody [guitar playing and girl humming]
