Nightingale so beautiful I love to hear you sing
You possess such perfect pitch it really is astounding
Nightingale so beautiful I love to here your song
The melody of which sets my heart a pounding
Once upon a summer night when I was on my own
I ventured out and found you singing to no one
(Singing to no one)

Nightingale you're so exciting (nightingale)
Nightingale you're so exciting (nightingale)
Nightingale you're so exciting (nightingale)
Nightingale you're so exciting (nightingale)

And though the poet praised you in a more artistic way
I'd like to reaffirm it lest you fly away
Please don't fly away

Nightingale so beautiful I love to hear you sing
You possess such perfect pitch it really is astounding
Nightingale so beautiful I love to here your song
The melody of which sets my heart a pounding
You have been admired for a very long time
And I know your song will live much longer than mine
(Longer than mine)

Nightingale you're so exciting (nightingale)
Nightingale you're so exciting (nightingale)
Nightingale you're so exciting (nightingale)
Nightingale you're so exciting (nightingale)
