Little Wing
Marius Müller Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
With a circus mind thats running round
Butterflies and zebras
And moonbeams and fairy tales
Thats all she ever thinks about
When Im sad, she comes to me
With a thousand smiles, she gives to me free
Take anything you want from me, anything
Anything.
Fly on little wing,
Yeah yeah, yeah, little wing
The song "Little Wing" by Marius Müller tells the story of a girl who is not quite anchored in reality. She walks through the clouds with a circus mind, filled with butterflies, zebras, and fairy tales. This suggests that she lives in her own world, one where she escapes to whenever she can. Her state of imaginative bliss is what makes her unique and perhaps difficult to understand. The song suggests that the singer feels a certain sadness, but when this girl comes to him with a thousand smiles, he feels better. She offers him everything he wants, telling him it's all right, giving him a chance to escape to her dreamland.
The song's lyrics aren't straightforward, as they are open to interpretation, but they can be seen as a metaphor for the personal struggles the singer faces. The girl in the song represents an escape from real-life pressures and demands, and perhaps the struggles of growing up. Marius Müller's has left the listener to find their interpretation of the meaning behind the song.

Når de kommer med de gode gitaristene sine tenker jeg på Marius, "kjempen med gitaren" . Når jeg hører ham spille "Little Wing" står gåsehuden som spiker på hele kroppen min. Takk for at du var her å lærte oss å kjenne deg og gitaren din Marius, før du dro videre for å spille med de gamle mesterne . RIP .
