Wide Sargasso Sea Lyrics


In the beginning, She was stunning and pure,
When he first saw her, he fainted to the floor.
She was distant and arrogant from the start,
She did not see the fragile state of his heart.
She fell in love with him on that very day,
She became softer in every way.Chorus:
Even though they were so in love,
They drew a line in the sand just because.
They did not know each other, they did not trust.
The only thing that they did together was to make love.So paradise found was like paradise to him.
Oh yes he loved her but he was still an Englishman.
Tropical birds and the heat and the ocean,
Oh it drove her crazy drove her away from him.ChorusShe burned his house down saying you may have forgotten me,
But you'll remember this, you fell to the ground when you saw this.
My face, my eyes, my lips
You may have forgotten me, but you'll never forget that kiss.ChorusThe big house burned down all around her,
In the smoke and the fire.
In the devastation they never found her.

She went back into her red dress back to her white house to her ocean.
And after that no words were spoken about the two of them ever again.ChorusIn the beginning she was stunning and pure.
In the smoke and the fire they never found her.
She went back into her ocean, back to her white house.
For a while they were so in love.
For a while they were so in love.
She burned his house down.
My face, my eyes, my lips.
You may have forgotten them
You may have forgotten them
You may have forgotten them
But you'll never forget that kiss.

Stephanie Lynn "Stevie" Nicks (born May 26, 1948) is an American singer and songwriter from Phoenix, Arizona, best known for her work with Fleetwood Mac and a long successful solo career. Her ethereal visual style and symbolic lyrics have brought her critical acclaim and have proved influential to many female artists. She was inducted into The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1998, as a member of Fleetwood Mac. Nicks has been nominated for seven Grammy Awards. Her classic song, "Silver Springs" was originally to be part of the best-selling Rumours album by Fleetwood Mac. Mick Fleetwood said it was too long and it was replaced by "Second Hand News." Nicks was crushed. The song was the b-side of the "Go Your Own Way" 45 vinyl. It never appeared on any album until 1992 on the 4-CD Box Set Fleetwood Mac "The Chain." In 1997 when the group reunited to do "The Dance" Reunion Tour, in 1997, she performed Silver Springs and earned a Grammy nomination the following year for "Best Pop Female Performance." The song was a gift to her mother, Barbara Nicks - who calls it her "rainy day" song, and finally appeared on her 2007 CD. Warner Bros. wouldn't let her put it on "TimeSpace" her 1991, first "Best Of" collection, which further deepened the rift between her solo career and her career with Fleetwood Mac. Ever the diplomat, she's one of the few women in rock to have a successful solo career with a band (she's been performing and recording with Fleetwood Mac for 35 years - and a successful solo career with highs and lows, since 1981. Her career took off again at age 50, with the release of of her 3-CD Box Set "The Enchanted Works of Stevie Nicks" in 1998 - and she's been going strong ever since. Her vocal coach, Steve Real, travels with her, and she does 45 minutes of vocal exercises before her shows. Years of touring, nearly destroyed her vocal cords. At one point, she had to get cortisone shots injected directly to her cords to keep up with the heavy demands of Fleetwood Mac's touring schedule. She beat the odds - overcoming major addictions (cocaine in 1986; and an addiction to tranquilizers in 1994). At the close of "Gold Dust Woman," on her solo tours she adds a verse to the early hit: "Take a look at me now...you should see me now..." And there's a well-deserved triumph in her eyes. A survivor, still sells out stadiums at age 61, loves her audiences; she is a legend in her own time."
In the past Stevie Nicks has mainly written alone, but for In Your Dreams, which was released May 3, 2011, she collaborated with Dave Stewart on seven of the tracks. Songfacts reports that Nicks re-connected with Stewart at a pilot for an interview show with Jimmy Iovine and decided there and then she would ask him to produce her next record. Nicks then gave Stewart a binder of 40 poems before they started working together.
"With Dave and me, he had thousands of chords and this amazing musical knowledge, and I had thousands of pages of poetry - and I know six chords. It was like an amazing little meeting of the minds, and I immediately went, 'Well this is just great!'" explained Nicks to Billboard.com.
