Nightingale Lane. Lyrics by RAYE RAYE
Below, you will find the lyrics for Nightingale Lane. by RAYE.
This is a song
About the greatest heartbreak
I have ever known
This song is called Nightingale Lane
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, mmm, mmm
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 it
Somebody loved me once
Somebody will again
Like the way you loved me
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
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
And I sigh When I drive
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
In fact I dare myself
To go on, just say it
Somebody loved me once
And someday, somebody will again
Like the way you loved me
On Nightingale Lane
Nightingale Lane, Nightingale Lane
And though 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
In June
Next to old Park Avenue
Standing in the rain
I watched him walk away
Away
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 believe someday
Someone will come along
And knock them walls down
And knock them walls down
When I drive
Down this road
I'm reminded though
I've let him go now
Right here in this ghost town
Right here on this ground
Is where
Someone once loved me
And someday, someone will again
Someone will
Come for me
I know, I know it, I know it
Someone will love me
Like the way you loved me
On Nightingale Lane
