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

Thin

And beer-stained

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

When I drive

Down this road

Down this ooh

I reminisce

Lose my mind

I drive slow

I've let him go now

I I

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

Loved me once

And someday 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

And it was

Early June

Right next to

Next to old Park Avenue

On Nightingale Lane

Standing in the rain

I watched him walk away

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

But when I drive
