I built my house beside the wood
So I could hear you singing
And it was sweet and it was good
And love was all beginning
Fare thee well my nightingale
'Twas long ago I found you
Now all your songs of beauty fail
The forest closes 'round you
The sun goes down behind a veil
'Tis now that you would call me
So rest in peace my nightingale
Beneath your branch of holly
Fare thee well my nightingale
I lived but to be near you
Tho' you are singing somewhere still
I can no longer hear you

@SW-User It's also simple and sweet. Just the way he meant them.

@SW-User simplicity can be even better said than something complex!! ☺

@SW-User I know, I know. 🤭 I think the song, the words stand alone, but when you know the author it even stands out more.

@SW-User I get you totally!! 👍 my song tastes are all over the map…..I’m not good at writing , so I kinda speak through music. Not all songs, but some. 😊
