For a Nightingale

[Verse 1]
I would walk you home
And then I'd sail you to the door
Under white bulbs flashing
Across the ocean's roar

[Refrain]
You're a star
You're a star

I would tell you things
That I told nobody else
Put your arms inside my jacket
Kiss me on the steps

[Refrain]
You're a star
You're a star

[Pre-Chorus]
My little heart would beat
When I saw your snow white feet
Eyes of blue, deep and wide
And your hair blows in the wind
It hurts me darling

[Chorus]
Do do do do do
Oh, here it comes
Do do do
It's gone in a flash
Do do do
Fills your lungs
Brings you back to life

[Verse 2]
As the seasons change
And the nights grew longer still
I'd wait for you in the laneway
By your house up on the hill

[Refrain]
You're a star
You're a star

[Pre-Chorus]
My little heart would beat
When I saw your snow white feet
Eyes of blue, deep and wide
And your hair blows in the wind
It hurts me darling

[Chorus]
Do-do do-do-do
Well here it comes
Do-do-do
It's gone in a flash
Do-do-do
It fills your lungs
Brings you back to life

[Bridge]
I love you and I always will love you
I love you and I always will

[Chorus]
Do-do do-do-do
Well, here it comes
Do-do-do
It's gone in a flash
Do-do-do
Well, here it comes
Do-do-do
It's gone in a flash
Do-do-do
Well, here it comes
Do-do-do
It's gone in a flash
Do-do-do
It fills your lungs
Brings you back to life
