| Nina Simone - Black Swan Lyrics: | ||
The sun has fallen and it lies in blood The moon is weaving bandages of gold Oh Black Swan, where oh where is my lover gone Torn and tattered is my bridal gown And my lamp is lost, and my lamp is lost With silver needles and with silver thread The stars stitch a route for the dying sun Oh black swan where oh where is my lover gone I have given him a kiss of fire and a golden ring, and a golden ring Come to hear your lover moan Eyes of glass and feet of stone Shells for teeth and weighs for tongue Deep deep down in the rivers bed he’s looking for the ring Eyes wide open never asleep He’s looking for the ring, looking for he ring The spools unraveled and the needles break The sun is buried and the stars weep Oh black wing oh black wing Take me down with you I will share with you my golden hair And my bridal crown, and my bridal crown http://www.free-lyrics.org/Nina-Simone/199651-Black-Swan.html Oh take me down with you Take me down to my wondering lover with my child unborn With my child unborn This is an aria from the opera The Medium by Gian Carlo Menotti (music and libretto). Opened on 1947 at Ethel Barrymore Theater on Broadway, The Medium was made into a motion picture in 1951, won a price at the Film Festival of Cannes in 1952, and had a nominee for the Oscar Price in 1953, category "Best scoring of a musical picture". Synopsis of The Medium. Madam Flora, her daughter Monica and Toby, the mute servant boy, prepare their shabby apartment with tricks to be used during the evening's seance. Mr and Mrs Gobineau arrive, regular clients, and Mrs Nolan, a widow coming for the first time. During the seance Mrs Nolan recognizes her dead daughter, but Madame Flora becomes hysterical when a cold hand seems to touch her throat; she suspects Toby, but he cannot answer her accusations. In the end, Madame Flora, after drinking heavily, shoots Toby in the dark, killing him. From OpAnon.
