NANA
Milton Banana Trio Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It sounds just like a fairy tale
Two angels in love together they fall
I was wrong to help my self to your love
Its cold though hell will thaw

You left me here to stare
At pictures of a love you left in despair
And I don't want to pray for the love
That let the angel fall

I think about you everyday now
I wonder where you are
And how you inspire
But it's impossible to see through the smile
That left me here to die

You left me here to stare
At pictures of a love you left in despair
And I don't want to pray for the love
That let the angel fall

You left me here to stare
At pictures of a love you left in despair




And I don't want to pray for the love
That let the angel fall
