Maxwell - Pretty Wings Lyrics
[Verse 1:]
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
[Hook:]
Oh you played me dirty, your game was so bad
You toyed with my affliction
Had to fill out my prescription
Found the remedy, I had to set you free
To see clearly the way that love can be
When you are not with me
I had to live, I had to live
I had to leave, I had to leave
[Chorus:]
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
[Verse 2:]
I came wrong you were right
Transformed your love into light
Baby believe me I'm sorry I told you lies
I turned day into night
Sleep 'til I died a thousand times
I should've showed you
Better nights better times better days
I miss you more and more
[Chorus:]
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, your pretty wings around
So pretty wings, your pretty wings around
Your pretty wings, your pretty wings around
So pretty wings, oh, pretty wings around
Pretty wings, your pretty wings around
[Repeat until end:]
Your pretty wings, pretty wings around

This song goes hard to me😎
Who remembers listening to this back in the day on Pandora?
I totally forgot this was a major song of healing for me after my fiance died in 2010. Not until it came up on my r&b playlist. wow. That's how healed I am.
Toyed with my affections had to get a prescription.
I miss you more and more 💯
I’m about to send this to my kid’s mothers. I gotta leave and I wish things could have been different.

Classy and brilliant
Maxwell 😍 I love this song
Although the music and melody are beautiful, I would never want someone to dedicate this song to me 😭😭😭 Too bad Maxwell wrote this from experience.
2020 anyone?
I love him 2020
He has a janet look here
This type of music really speaks to the inner self
"Someone better s'gonna love you, someone...."In all seriousness, I felt that lyric in my soul, crap, now I am tearing up! I am 4 months into a separation and just now, I truly understand what that means. He couldn't love me the way I needed so now, we are no more. I haven't thought about the relationship on a month and a half, but this song just punched me in the gut. Damn, Maxwell, this why I love you so much!
2020?? i love this songggg

Maxwell is The Man. I used to think Genuine was that dude but nah, I think Maxwell bumped him out the spot. This cat has that Angelic soul music. Real talk.
