Black Swan Lyrics - At Carnegie Hall - Nina Simone

(1947) gian carlo menotti 

The sun is falling and it lies in blood 

The moon is weaving bandages of gold 

Old black swan where oh where is my lover now 

Where oh where is my lover now 

Torn and tattered is my bridal gown and my lamp is lost 

With silver needles and with silver threads 

The stars stitch a route for the dying sun 

Old black swan where oh where is my lover now 

I had given him a kiss and a golden ring 

And a golden ring 

I had given him a kiss of fire and a golden ring 

Oh with silver needles and with silver threads 

The stars stitch a route for the dying sun

Black wing o black wing take me down with you 

Take me down with you take me down with you 

Take me down with you 

Old black swan take me down with you 

I had given him a kiss of fire 

Take me down with you
