Nightingale lyrics - Eagles

I'm hanging on to my peace of mind

I just don't know

I'm hanging on to those good times, baby

Just wanna let them roll

I'm gonna make it to the light and joy

I'll tell you why

I got a woman who can take me there

The apple of my eye

Oh, I just don't know, no no, no

No, I love her so

Don't let me see that morning paper

'Cause I don't need those dues

It's just the same old murder movie

But they call it "the news"

I'll tell you what would be some story

And what would set me free

Is if the same thing happened to everybody

That just happened to me

Oh, I just don't know, no, no, no, no

No, I'll never let her go, no, no, no

Every time I hear somebody sneakin' up behind

Whoa, I turn around

But I still hear that sound

And just when I'm about to lose my mind

Here comes my baby

Singing like a nightingale

Coming my way down along that devastation trail

Well tell the Lord above

She's got a brand of love

That cannot fail

I'm hanging on to my peace of mind

That's no lie

I'm hanging on to my special friend

The apple of my eye

The apple of my eye

My inspiration, too

She's got a lead on my heart and my soul

And she knows just what to do

Oh, I just don't know, no, no, no, no

No, I get so low

And my mind's about to go

But wait a minute

Here comes my baby

Singing like a nightingale

Coming my way down along that devastation trail

Well, let the fires burn

Let the floods return

We will prevail

Hanging on to my peace of mind

I just don't know
