butterfly on a wheel — текст песни (mission)

Butterfly on a wheel by The Mission
from the album Carved in sand

D Bm
Silver and gold, and it`s growing cold
G Fm
Autumn leaves lay as thick as thieves
D Bm
Shivers down your spine, chill you to the bone,
G Fm
cause the mandling wind is the melody that turns your heart to stone
D Bm
The heat of your breath carvin shadows in the mist
G Fm
Every angel has the wish, she`s never been kissed
D Bm
A broken dream, haunting in your sleep
G Fm
Hiding in your smile, a secret you must keep love cuts you deep.


Bm A
Love breaks the wings of a butterfly on a wheel
Bm A
Love breaks the wings of a butterfly on a wheel

D Bm
There`s no scarlet in you, lay a fair down for me
G Fm
Sure has got me twined, you can`t wrap you arms around a memory
D Bm
Take warmth from me, cold autumn winds cut sharp as a knife
G Fm
but in the dark for me you`re the candle flame that flikkers to light


Bm A
Love breaks the wings of a butterfly on a wheel
Bm A
Love will break the wings of a butterfly on a wheel
Bm A
Love breaks the wings of a butterfly on a wheel
Bm A
Love will break the wings of a butterfly on a wheel

D Bm
Wise men say all is fair in love and war
G
And there`s no right or wrong in the design of love
Fm
And I could only watch as the wind crushed your wings
D Bm
Broken and torn, crushed like a flower under the snow
G Fm
and like the flower in the spring, love will rise again to heal your wings

Bm A
Love heals the wings of a butterfly on a wheel
Bm A
Love will heal the wings of a butterfly on a wheel
Bm A
Love heals the wings of a butterfly on a wheel
Bm A
Love will heal the wings of a butterfly on a wheel
