Fading Flowers

Saturday, April 28, 2012

This is taken from Yuna self-titled album.

It's her US debut album (She released an EP in US before).

This is my favorite song from the album.

People are more on Lullabies but I chose this one.

Such a lovely song!



You got that walk walk walk
Got that talk talk talk
Got that swagger-er-er
Such a glamor-or-or

You're like a real life doll
With your hand that falls
Like niagara ah ahBut that don't matter-er-er

Cause that don't change the fact
that your heart is black

Cause you can't tear me down
Beat me to the ground
Try to block my sunshine my blue skies with your clouds

Who do you think you are
Yeah that won't get you far
You may think you're pretty
But you'll see that beauty is a fading flower

Fading flow-ow-ow-ower
Fading flow-ow-ow-ower
You'll only play play play
If you get your way always
In the center-er-er
Of attentio-io-ion

All the lying
And the cheating
The mistreating
How you even sleep at ni-igh-igh-ight
Blows my mi-i-i-indI wonder when you'll see
but you don't bother me

You can't tear me down
Beat me to the ground
Try to block my sunshine my blue skies with your clouds

Who do you think you are
Yeah that won't get you far
you may think you're pretty
but you'll see that beauty is a fading flower
Fading flow-ow-ow-ower
Fading flow-ow-ow-ower

I spent all of my youth
trying to be you
thought that you were special
that you're beautiful
but the more of you I see
the more I'm glad I'm me

Cause you can't tear me down
Beat me to the ground
Trying to block my sunshine my blue skies with your clouds

Who do you think you are
Yeah that won't get you far
you may think you're pretty
but you'll see that beauty is a fading flower
Fading flow-ow-ow-ower
Fading flow-ow-ow-ower


P/s: The song is super new, I couldn't find any lyrics for the song so here's my take on it.
I couldn't finish it anyway since I'm not even sure.
Even the parts I wrote are not certain.

I'll change it when I get the original lyrics. :)

--> Thanks to the Anon who left comment correcting my lyrics. As of now, I'm gonna stick with his/her version. Now the lyrics made sense to me. Thanks luv! :)

And again, huge thanks to another Anon who left comment here. I've changed my lyrics. Thanks luv. :)

--> Huge thanks to James Cobalt for correcting my lyrics. I've changes it with your version and yes, his version; it makes a lot more sense.
Thanks luv. ;)

You like the real live door
Lift your head that falls

You like the real-life doll
Lift your head that falls
Like viagra oh oh

Cause that don't change the fact
That your heart is black

You can't tear me down
Beat me to the ground
Try to block my sunshine
My blue skies with your clouds
And who do you think you are
Yet that won't get you far
You may think you're pretty
But you'll see that beauty
Is a fading flower

All the lying
And the cheating
The mistreating
How you even sleep at ni-igh-igh-ight
Blows my mi-i-i-ind

I wonder when you'll see
That you don't bother me

So you can't tear me down
Beat me to the ground
Try to block my sunshine,
My blue skies with your clouds
And who do you think you are
Yet that won't get you far
You may think you're pretty
But you'll see that beauty
Is a fading flower

Fading flow-ow-ow-ower
Fading flow-ow-ow-ower

I spent all of my youth
Trying to be you
Thought that you were special
That you were beautiful
But the more of you I see
The more I'm glad I'm me

Cause you can't tear me down
Beat me to the ground
Try to block my sunshine
My blue skies with your clouds
And who do you think you are
Yet that won't get you far (that won't get you far)
You may think you're pretty
But you'll see that beauty
Is a fading flower

Fading flow-ow-ow-ower (fading flower)
Fading flow-ow-ow-ower (fading flower)

I take it back. It's not "Trying to block my sunshine"; it's just "Try to".

And it's not "Yet that won't get you far"; it's "Yeah that won't get you far", which makes a lot more sense...
