This Is A Song About The Greatest Heartbreak I Have Ever Known
This Song Is Called "Nightingale Lane"
Verse 1
On A Street In The South London Suburbs
Where My First Love Kissed Me Goodbye
His Lips Were Thin And Beer-Stained And Tear-Stained
Was A Pain That Made Me Colder Now
After The Oceans I Cried, I'm Made Of Steel Just Floating Now, Mm-Mm
Pre-Hook
But When I Drive Down This Road
I Reminisce I Drive Slow I've Let Him Go Now
Just See A Ghost Town And Sometimes At Red Lights (With Closed Eyes)
I Tell Myself, I Dare Myself To Go On, Just Say
Hook [A Tempo]
Somebody Loved Me Once (Loved Me Once)
And Someday, Somebody Will Again
Like The Way You Loved Me
(Take Me Back In Your Arms, Oh, My Love, Just Tonight)
On Nightingale Lane (Nightingale Lane, Nightingale Lane)
Although We Never Made It Stranger, You Showed Me It's True
I'm Capable Of Loving Someone The Way I Loved You
It Was Right There Early June Next To Old Park Avenue
(On Nightingale Lane) Standing In The Rain, I Watched Him Walk Away
Verse 2
Took Me Long, Hard Years To Get Over You
It Was An Aching I Refuse To Feel Again
And Looking Back Now We Never Were Quite Right For Each Other, Baby
But In The Absence Of Passion In My Life I Remember How Alive Love Once Was
Instruments [Cool Down] [Spoken Word]
Yeah-Yeah-Yeah, Ayy, Yeah-Yeah, Da-Da-Da-Ayy
I've, I've Dabbled In Love Since Maybe Every Other Summer It Never Lasts Long
They Never Stick Around I'm Made Of Steel Now (I'm Made Of Steel)
I Believe Someday, Someone Gon' Come Along
And Knock Them Walls Down (Down, Down)
And Knock Them Walls Down (Knock Them Walls Down)
Bridge
When I Drive Down This Road
I'm Reminded, Though I've Let Him Go Now
Bridge [Freely]
Right Here In This Ghost Town Right Here On This Ground Is Where
Someone Once Loved Me
Someday , Someone Will Again...
Ending [A Tempo]
Someone Will I Know, I Know It, I Know It
Someone Will Love Me Like The Way You Loved Me
On Nightingale Lane
