David Bowie - ★ (Blackstar) lyrics
[David Bowie - ★ Blackstar lyrics]
In the villa of Ormen, in the villa of Ormen
Stands a solitary candle, ah ah, ah ah
In the centre of it all
In the centre of it all your eyes
On the day of execution
On the day of execution
Only women kneel and smile, ah ah, ah ah
At the centre of it all
At the centre of it all your eyes, your eyes
Ah ah ah ah ah ah
In the villa of Ormen, in the villa of Ormen
Stands a solitary candle, ah ah, ah ah
At the centre of it all
At the centre of it all your eyes, your eyes
Ah ah ah
Something happened on the day he died
Spirit rose a metre and stepped aside
Somebody else took his place
And bravely cried
(I'm a blackstar, I'm a blackstar)
How many times does an angel fall?
How many people lie instead of talking tall?
He trod on sacred ground
He cried loud into the crowd
(I'm a blackstar, I'm a blackstar
I'm not a gangstar)
I can't answer why (I'm a blackstar)
Just go with me (I'm not a filmstar)
I'ma take you home (I'm a blackstar)
Take your passport and shoes
(I'm not a popstar)
And your sedatives, boo (I'm a blackstar)
You're a flash in the pan
(I'm not a marvel star)
I'm the Great I Am (I'm a blackstar)
I'm a blackstar, way up, on money
I've got game
I see right, so wide, so open hearted pain
I want eagles in my daydreams
Diamonds in my eyes
(I'm a blackstar, I'm a blackstar)
Something happened on the day he died
Spirit rose a metre then stepped aside
Somebody else took his place
And bravely cried
(I'm a blackstar, I'm a star's star
I'm a blackstar)
I can't answer why (I'm not a gangstar)
But I can tell you how (I'm not a flam star)
We were born upside down (I'm a star's star)
Born the wrong way 'round
(I’m not a white star)
I'm a blackstar, I'm not a gangstar
I'm a blackstar, I'm a blackstar
I'm not a pornstar, I'm not a wandering star
I'm a blackstar, I’m a blackstar
In the villa of Ormen
Stands a solitary candle ah ah, ah ah
At the centre of it all, your eyes
On the day of execution
Only women kneel and smile ah ah, ah ah
At the centre of it all, your eyes, your eyes
Ah ah ah
Stands a solitary candle, ah ah, ah ah
In the centre of it all
In the centre of it all your eyes
On the day of execution
On the day of execution
Only women kneel and smile, ah ah, ah ah
At the centre of it all
At the centre of it all your eyes, your eyes
Ah ah ah ah ah ah
In the villa of Ormen, in the villa of Ormen
Stands a solitary candle, ah ah, ah ah
At the centre of it all
At the centre of it all your eyes, your eyes
Ah ah ah
Something happened on the day he died
Spirit rose a metre and stepped aside
Somebody else took his place
And bravely cried
(I'm a blackstar, I'm a blackstar)
How many times does an angel fall?
How many people lie instead of talking tall?

He cried loud into the crowd
(I'm a blackstar, I'm a blackstar
I'm not a gangstar)
