This tour is hitting Toronto at the perfect time for me, so I thought I’d notify all of u… in case its your due-time too!!! As much as I have loved Maxwell since the days of ‘Ascension’ and ‘This Womans Work’, I’ve reached an age now where I can honestly relate to his lyrics from past experiences (instead of just falling infatuate to his lulling voice and melodic rhythms). This time, with BLACK summers’night he’s managed to attract me from every angle and produce tracks that give strength and courage while romanticising the coldest heart!!!

September 25th is the date so SAVE IT! He’s turning the ACC in to his own playground and he will have us all in the palm of his hand… I can’t wait!!!

Here’s the lyrics to ‘Pretty Wings’… they grabbed me from the first verse and held me until the last note:

Time will bring the real end of our trial
One day there’ll be no remnants no trace
No residual feelings within ya
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 ya
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
For 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 a lie
Baby believe me I’m sorry I told you lies

I turned day into night
Sleep till I die a thousand times
I should have 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
