Blackstar Lyrics by David Bowie David Bowie
Below, you will find the lyrics for Blackstar by David Bowie.
In the villa of Ormen
In the villa of Ormen
Stands a solitary candle
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
At the centre of it all
At the centre of it all
Your eyes
Your eyes
In the villa of Ormen
In the villa of Ormen
Stands a solitary candle
At the centre of it all
At the centre of it all
Your eyes
Your eyes
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 gangster
I can't answer why
Just go with me
I'm-a take you home
Take your passport and shoes
And your sedatives, boo
You're a flash in the pan
I'm the great I am
I'm a blackstar, way up, honey, I've got game
I see right so white, so open-heart it's 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 and stepped aside
Somebody else took his place, and bravely cried
I'm a blackstar, I'm a star star, I'm a blackstar
I can't answer why
But I can tell you how
We were born upside-down
Born the wrong way around
I'm a blackstar
I'm not a gangster
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
At the centre of it all
Your eyes
On the day of execution
Only women kneel and smile
At the centre of it all
Your eyes
Your eyes
