The Struts - Black Swan Lyrics

I was a boy from the hills
That rained so much before she came
Then I saw you, we grew together
We were just the same

We fell in love oh-so desperately
Against the family's will
We planned to run away
She said to meet me at night on the hill

"They'll never find us", that's what she said
We could have made it out
But in the night they stole her life

Now there's nothing more than this
A lonely sky amongst the mist
Now you're gone
My black swan

I know there's nothing left to say
But if you ever fly my way
Sing your song
Now you're gone
Love so strong
My black swan

And they said the case was a mystery
The jury set them free
Now the town seals my history
To a place no one should be

You did the crime, that's what they say
I wish I could clear my name from
That dark night, they stole her light

Now there's nothing more than this
A lonely sky amongst the mist
Now you're gone
My black swan

I know there's nothing left to say
But if you ever fly my way
Sing your song
Now you're gone
Love's so strong
My black swan

"They'll never find us," that's what she said
We could have made it out but
In the night they stole her life

You did the crime, that's what they say
I wish I could clear my name from
That dark night, they stole her light

Now there's nothing more than this
A lonely sky amongst the mist
Now you're gone
My black swan

I know there's nothing left to say
But if you ever fly my way
Sing your song
Now you're gone
Love so strong
My black swan

My black swan
My black swan
