Survivor
Black & Jones feat. Mike Francis Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The guilt in my soul
Ill patrons of grief
A chapter now closed
Demise of a dream
No hope, no belief
I'm facing my past tonight
Your hate, my confusion
The crossing of blades
Unifies our fates
How can our love be wrong
No, it can't be
Something that feels so strong, ah
Melting two hearts of stone
Broken survivors on their own
With scorn in your eyes
You scream at my soul
The future is slain
Tear open the seams
To make me undone
And crown me with blame
Exhausted beyond despair
Relinquish your anguish unto me
Through harrowing pain
We're beginning to yearn
For the touch that burns
How can our love be wrong
No, it can't be
Something that feels so strong, ah
Facing a perfect storm
Broken survivors, lovers torn
Ten thousand more nights with you
Believe in the feeling
A passion that was never meant to be ours
Yet it overpowers
So how can our love be wrong?
How can our love be wrong?
No, it can't be
Something that feels so strong, ah
Melting two hearts of stone
Broken survivors on their own
How can our love be wrong
No, it can't be
Something that feels so strong, ah
Facing a perfect storm
Broken survivors, lovers torn
Fate forlorn

„Blank & Jones grew up with his music in the 80s and convinced Mike
Francis in 2005 to return to the microphone. Together they recorded a cover
version of the van Morrison classic "Someone Like You" for their
famous "Relax" series. The vibe was right and so they not only
decided to record a whole Blank & Jones album ("Relax Edition
Three") with Mike Francis as lead singer, but also produced in return
his comeback album "Inspired" (2007). Sadly this fantastic singer
and wonderful person passed away in 2009 far too early.”

Le note e l'atmosfera di Survivor provocano ogni volta un brivido, seppur malinconico, comunque pieno di energia e di emozione per chi, come me, ha vissuto gli anni '80
