Nina Persson - Black Winged Bird (+ lyrics)

Song Words by Artist : Nina Persson
Song Lyrics Title : Blackwinged Bird
Taken from Music Album : The Cake Sale
Single Released : October 2007
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Night can't come quick enough
My faults shine in the sun
A train bridge of spies
watches all the cars collide

I roll my green sleeves over ruby
I don't blame you for doing it to me
Real girls don't take aim
like kings do these days

I made my mind up to be a black-winged bird
Never turn my head for how things were
Leave the bluest skies for boys to burn

And I'll soar on my way
Sad as the state of things we can't change

Now we're paper dolls all aflame
In houses that all look the same
Rows of regret
An arson for a wilderness

I hide my saints in the willow trunk
You started me on this junk
Now my black lungs are blue
But I'm still singing to you
I'm still singing to you

Made my mind up to be a black-winged bird
Never turn my head for how things were
Leave the bluest skies for boys to burn

Ohhh!! Muchas gracias, la acabo de subir hoy y ya tengo 5 estrellitas!! A mi personalmente es la mejor versión jamás hecha de la canción, y una de las mejores de Nina, el problema es que no la he encontrado con más calidad, pero seguiré buscando porque merece la pena.

Saludos; Aleraia

Cthulhu's seal of approval ^^

Nina's eyes always drew me in, made me feel as if I was falling into them at the same time they stabbed through me. I have to say...as a brunette her eyes are even more beautiful. Not that I think she would ever look at me, nor that I would ever trouble her. I simply look at her and hear her voice and to me it is the same thing as viewing Monet's "Water Lilies".

Beauty and talent understood, acknowledged and appreciated.

@sangreal1169 Emm Gryner also wrote the lyrics!

[sangreal1169]

Actually, Emm Gryner wrote the music for this song, and also performed it first I believe :)

Both versions are excellent!

Esta chica con el tiempo ha demostrado ser una grande artista, lo weno es que se ve linda como siempre, mas aun que su voz se mantiene de lo mejor. Viva Nina Person, Escucha el cover que le hizo a Pink Floyd. Us and Them - A Camp, en la version del albun no en la de estudio, Saludos

this is soul-less and terrible! Go watch the original songwriter's version by Emm Gryner.
