Now I think we're taking this too far Don't you know that it's not this hard Well it's not this hard But if you take what's yours and I take mine Must we go there Please not this time, no not this time Watching you shine bright So this is how it goes

I know you're there Can you be my nightingale? Sing me to sleep Say you'll be my nightingale I need a voice to echo I need a light to take me home I never see the forest for the trees I could really use your melody Baby I'm a little blind
