about

Nightingale. Written circa 1978, a ballad of a young man's journey into the world A favourite song I’m glad to have rediscovered.

lyrics

My sweet
Nightingale

My sweet
Nightingale

You sing your song so sweet
Take it to the moonlight
Com' on fly on high
You Sing to the ones
It matters the most

My sweet
Nightingale

You took me some places
I've not been before
Doing things I was told to avoid
By my ma and pa
Well I’m sure it ain't right
To stay here too long
But I might just stick around
I might just do one more song

My Sweet
Nightingale

My sweet

I wish I could sing like you
Fly like you as high as you
But I'm just a man
With desires running free
An ordinary man
With desires and fantasies

I wish I could sing like you
Fly like you
As high as you
But I'm just a man
With desires running free
An ordinary man
With desires and fantasies

My Sweet
Nightingale

You Sing to the ones
It matters the most

My Sweet
Nightingale

about

KCJ RAR York, UK

KCJ RAR's Project Retoons, recreating my songs from the 70's and 80's, layering vocals, guitars and virtual instruments to create classic rock numbers that never were; symphonic prog epics that could have been; and avant-garde psychedelic art rock grooves that surely fill a gap in music history!
In short, a lot of fun reliving my youth.
