Whippoorwill Serenade

(hmmmmm) Underneath the heavy

canopy of pine

Listen to the shadows

shifting on the vine

Where the whip-poor-will

is calling out to you

Singing simple melodies

we always knew

Oh, the whip-poor-will sings of a love so deep

While the rest of the mountain

is fast asleep (fast asleep)

Every note she holds,

every sigh she sends Is a promise

of a love that never ends

We left our footprints in the damp red clay

Chasing down the remnants

of a fading day

Now the evening breeze is whispering our names

And the bird is playing gentle

acoustic games (ooh-ooh-ooh)

And when the morning light breaks through the haze

We'll still be walking down these quiet ways

Oh, the whip-poor-will sings of a love so deep

While the rest of the mountain

is fast asleep (fast asleep) Every note she holds,

every sigh she sends Is a promise

of a love that never ends

Singing love songs in the dark... (hummm)
