MAXWELL LYRICS - Pretty Wings

"Pretty Wings"



[Verse 1:]

Time will bring the real end of our trial

One day they'll be no remnants

No trace, no residual feelings within ya

One day you won't remember me



Your face will be the reason I smile

But I will not see what I cannot have forever

I'll always love ya, I hope you feel the same



[Hook:]

Oh you played me dirty, your game was so bad

You toyed with my affliction

Had to fill out my prescription

Found the remedy, I had to set you free



Away from me

To see clearly the way that love can be

When you are not with me

I had to leave, I have to live

I had to lead, I had to live



[Chorus:]

If I can't have you, let love set you free

To fly your pretty wings around

Pretty wings, your pretty wings

Your pretty wings around



[Verse 2:]

I came wrong you were right

transformed your love into light

baby believe me I'm sorry I told you lies



I turned day into night

sleep till I died a thousand times

I shoulda showed you

Better night better times better days

I miss you more, more



[Chorus:]

If I can't have you, let love set you free

To fly your pretty wings around

Pretty wings, your pretty wings

Your pretty wings around
