Riding The Nightingale |
| Dyin' mama barely breathin' in a bed of nails |
| To wander through the ruin smokin' and pale |
| Came upon an angel and a nightingale |
| Back where the darkness comes |
| Between the earth and skies above |
| Dead weight on my body’s bones |
| I think I dug too deep a hole |
| Think I dug too deep |
| A hole |
| Better run for cover babe you better hide |
| Don’t do no good to wait til time decides |
| Time decides |
| Time |
| Time |
| I need a little more time |
| Riding on my nightingale |
| So many years to, to ride |
| Hiding on my nightingale, around my heart |
| Climbing down the stairs at last |
| I wouldn’t touch me right |
| You’re too proud and I’m too scared |
| And I’m neither here nor there |
| It’s only fear |
| Well open up the doors |
| And let me breathe that air |
| Better run for cover babe you better hide |
| Just don’t do to wait til time decides |
| Time decides |
| Time |
| Time |
| I need a little more time |
| Mama I’m gonna cry now |
| Cry, I’m gonna cry now |
| Oh you’re makin' me cry now |
| Cry, I’m gonna cry now |
| Oh, no, no, no, no, no |
| I’m gonna cry |
| Cry |
| I’m gonna die cryin' |
| Better run for cover babe you’d better hide |
| Just don’t to wait til time decides |
| Tied around my nightingale |
| So many years to, to hide |
| Fly my nightingale |
| Around my heart |
| Who’s riding on my nightingale (7x's) |
