Story Behind The Song
during college, after a car accident, I spent 3 months in a hospital. I developed a thing for my day nurse. I then I made a little story up. And for the title, I used a line that my grandfather would say during a moment of disgust - Good Night Nurse!

Lyrics
Good Night Nurse
music and lyrics by Inspector 13
Good night nurse
It's so much worse at sunset
I always forget who loves you like babes do
Just set out my bottle Ode Poppies legato
and sing me a lullaby
And tell Forgotten Fables with happy endings this time
About Jack and the Magic Goose
Where emerald stalks rise to streets made of gold
Good night nurse
Lift this curse of daydreams that I will never see
Who loves you like mommas do
My heart's on my sleeve my sailor's at leave
Rowing his boat ashore
Rowing against the current of possibility and odds
Adrift under the icy moon
Where snow angels are melting their wings
Trying to hold candles to you
Good night my good friend in white
My angel of mercy my sweet delight
Who sees you like sore eyes do
If I could stand up and walk to the door
I cannot my boat's run ashore
A sweet adieu under this winter moon
