"Pretty Wings" Maxwell

THIS is my new 'anthem'...if I were to have one. This describes exactly how I'm feeling, what I'm going through. This is what brings people together...the ability to identify w/ what's being communicated...guidance to heal.

I saw Maxwell at The Tower theater once, not w/ 'him'...there were a lot of chicks there and some renaissance black men (is there such a 'man' anymore?!). I remember him sitting on the stage on that stool - handsome, confident and engaging. Sooooo glad he's back...and I've included the LYRICS at the bottom - some fail to realize it's more than beats and flashy production...I co-sign.

Time will bring the real end of our trial
One day there'll be no remnants, no trace,
No residual feelings within you
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 you.
I hope you feel the same.

Oh, you played me dirty, your game was so bad
You toyed with my affliction
Had to fill out my prescription,find 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 lead
I had to live
I had to leave
I had to love

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. Pretty wings around.

I came wrong you were right
Transformed your love into like
Baby believe me, I'm sorry I told you lies.
I turned day into night
Sleep till I die a thousand times
Ah, I should've showed you
Better nights, better times
Better days, and I miss you more and more

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. Pretty wings around.

Pretty wings, your pretty wings, your
Pretty wings. Pretty wings around.
