Oh the world is still It's quiet as a mouse, it's 3 am Wide awake, I'm trying to get the words out of my mouth But I can't make a sound Since you left me lying here in my bed While you're running off with him
Everything in my world was yours, when I held you tenderly I was once in his shoes, I had everything to lose and so I did It wasn't long ago when I could feel the breeze Of you blowing on my skin I could feel your touch as your arms were closing in If I could muster a sound I'd sing This song out loud just like a nightingale
I was driving fast with roses on my seat and headed home I was late with dinner getting cold When I was struck in the side of the car And then I saw your face I couldn't move, I couldn't say a word to you
Everything in my world was yours, when I held you tenderly Oh now my world is caving in Because you're sleeping next to him If I could die You bet your life I would
Because I can't feel the breeze of you blowing on my skin I can't feel your touch as your arms are closing in If I could muster a sound I'd sing this song out loud Just like the nightingale The nightingale
If the tables had been turned I could never go without you by my side But I'm reminded everyday how I can't feel the breeze of you blowing on my skin I can't feel your touch as your arms are closing in If I could muster a song I'd sing this song out loud Just like the nightingale The nightingale
I can't feel the breeze of you blowing on my skin I can't feel your touch as your arms are closing in If I could muster a sound I'd sing this song out loud Just like a nightingale The nightingale
