Lyric

Pink blossoms sway in the light of the day

I’m thinking of you in the wind’s soft way

Back when my world was a shadow of gray

And kindness was something that felt miles away

In the hollow rooms of a heart lived in dark

Your melody whispered and lit up a spark

To live for another, to give and to share

I didn't quite know how to show that I care

But since I was led by your voice on that day

I’ve slowly been finding my own better way

I hear the nightingale singing its song

Like sunlight through branches, where spirits belong

No matter how distant or far you may be

Your warmth is a heartbeat that lives inside me

Thank you... oh, thank you

I whisper these words to the sea

Even the smallest of kindness you give

Will circle back home in the life that we live

You told me those words and I kept them so tight

More precious than gold in the middle of night

To weave a life softly, through thread and through loom

Even when rain brings a season of gloom

The warmth that we shared in the cold of the storm

Is keeping me steady and keeping me warm

I hear the nightingale singing its song

A melody ringing when things are going wrong

When I listen to voices that don't make a sound

The kindness I lost is the kindness I found

Thank you... oh, thank you

To you, where the light is profound

On days when I’m wounded and chasing the shade

Your voice was the comfort that never would fade

Even if I have nothing to hold in my hand

Our hearts are connected across the wide land

I hear the nightingale singing its song

A resonance making me steady and strong

Even if we are destined to not meet again

Your memory shines through the loss and the pain

Thank you... oh, thank you

I’ll live with your soul in my vein

I’ll carry your spirit in all that I do

Forever and always... because of you
