Hear the Nightingale
Dreaming Stars and Silence: A Musical Crossroads
Lyrics
I'm sitting at a crossroads
I find myself at a crucial point in life
With one hand I play guitar
Playing the guitar with one hand
Yeah I'm sitting at a crossroads
Still at a significant crossroads
And with the other I hold my heart
While the other hand holds my heart
Don't know what to do but I'm dreaming the stars
Uncertain about the future, but dreaming big
Don't know the way back home but I'm dreaming the sky
Lost but dreaming of the vast sky
Lids are getting heavy to silence of the night
Feeling the weight of the night, eyes closing
Ink is pouring out
Ink flows out like blood from a vein
Like blood from a vein
Symbolic of deep emotional expression
And if only could my words fly through the night
Wishing for words to travel through the night
And break the silence
To shatter the silence
Like so can the Nightingale
Comparing to the Nightingale breaking silence
If only could my words
Repetition of the desire for impactful words
Say hey but never goodbye
Words saying hello without saying goodbye
They'd break the silence
Similar to the Nightingale's impact on silence
Like so does the Nightingale
(Repetition of Oooooooo and Ah aaaaaaaaa)
Oooooooo
Expressing emotions with vocalizations
Ah aaaaaaaaa
(Repetition of Oooooooo and Ah aaaaaaaaa)
Raise my words above
Aspiring to elevate words and make them sing
Let them sing along
Encouraging words to resonate and be heard
Was walking through a graveyard
Walking through a graveyard, reflecting on the past
I saw shadows of the past
Observing shadows of historical events
Was walking through a graveyard
Continuing the journey through the graveyard
And I wondered will I last?
Contemplating one's own mortality
Don't know what to do but I'm dreaming the stars
Uncertain about the future, but dreaming big
Don't know the way back home but I'm dreaming the sky
Lost but dreaming of the vast sky
Bowed the trees and growled the hounds
Nature reacting to a wandering soul
A man astray with a lantern in his hands
Describing a man lost with a lantern
And under moonlighting gleam
Moonlight revealing a different reality
It wasn't the Nightingale that sangue
Contrasting the Nightingale's song
Where's man where's man where's man
Seeking the whereabouts of man
And if only could my words fly through the night
Desire for impactful words to break silence
And break the silence
Yearning for words to pierce through the night
Like so can the Nightingale
Comparing to the Nightingale's impact on silence
If only could my words
(Repetition of the desire for impactful words)
Say hey but never goodbye
Words saying hello without saying goodbye
They'd break the silence
Similar to the Nightingale's impact on silence
Like so does the Nightingale
(Repetition of Oooooooo and Ah aaaaaaaaa)
Oooooooo
(Repetition of Oooooooo)
Ah aaaaaaaaa
(Repetition of Ah aaaaaaaaa)
Raise my words above
Aspiring to elevate words and make them sing
Let them sing along
Encouraging words to resonate and be heard
