Better run for cover babe, you better hide
I wouldn't touch me right
Hiding on my nightingale around my heart
Fly my nightingale around my heart
Tied around my nightingale
And let me breathe that air
Don't do no good to wait 'til time decides
Riding on my nightingale
So many years to, to ride
Just don't to wait 'til time decides
I need a little more time
Dead weight on my body's bones
Back where the darkness comes
Think I dug too deep a hole
Who's riding on my nightingale?
Time decides, time, time
And I'm neither here nor there
I think I dug too deep a hole
Who's riding on my nightingale?
Between the earth and skies above
You're too proud and I'm too scared
Time decides, time, time
Mama, I'm gonna cry now, cry
Who's riding on my nightingale?
I need a little more time
Came upon an angel and a nightingale
Who's riding on my nightingale?
Just don't do to wait 'til time decides
Now cry, I'm gonna cry now, oh, no, no
No, no, no, I'm gonna cry, cry, I'm gonna die cryin'
Better run for cover babe, you better hide
Better run for cover babe, you'd better hide
I'm gonna cry now, oh, you're makin' me cry
Who's riding on my nightingale?
So many years to, to hide
Climbing down the stairs at last
It's only fear, we'll open up the doors
Who's riding on my nightingale?
