Taking their name from the classic Beatles track, BlackByrd are in the process of turning adult-contemporary pop convention on its head, thanks to Lamb's new-found talent as a critical songwriter. "We've all grown, as people and entertainers," Lamb says. "We're artists now, and loving every minute."
Since January 2012, BlackByrd, along with promoter and music-industry veteran Mike Fuller as manager, have been creating a body of work that will be released as 13-track debut album this September.
How Fickle Is Your Heart
BlackByrd Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
As friends we made a vow
To keep love true along the way
Then I figured out
You turned out the liar
A truth you shouted out
How could you think that I was gonna stay
You changed your mind
You changed your alibi
Your lies drove us apart
Now we never even speak
And part of my heart you left broken
I should have seen it from the start
You're just a selfish work of art
Now the miles and miles between
The many words we left unspoken
How could you let me fall apart
I see how fickle is your heart
Time changes all
It heals the broken-hearted
Double minded men will fall
And learn the games they started
Why'd you have to play pretend
You didn't have to lie
The scars you left were permanent
How could you look me in the eye
Now we never even speak
And part of my heart you left broken
I should have seen it from the start
You're just a selfish work of art
Now the miles and miles between
The many words we left unspoken
How could you let me fall apart
I see how fickle is your heart
You changed your mind
You changed your heart
You changed your alibi
Your lies drove us apart
And now we never even speak
And part of my heart you left broken
I wish I saw you from the start
You're just a selfish work of art
Now the miles and miles between
The many words we left unspoken
How could you let me fall apart
I see how fickle is your heart
And now we never even speak
And part of my heart you left broken
I should have seen it from the start
You're just a selfish work of art
Now the miles and miles between
The many words we left unspoken
How could you let me fall apart
I see how fickle is your heart
