Black Orchid
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You're blooming
In the night
Bodies moving
In the red light
I've been watching
Watching you score
Making the men
Beggin' you for more
You just wanna be
But a mystery to me
But I'd love to see
Black orchid, wild and free
Skyscraping
Skyline
Moneymakers
Killing time
I've been watching
Watching Singapore
Making arrangements
Croaking nevermore
You just wanna be
But a mystery to me
But I'd love to see
Black orchid, wild and free
You just wanna be
But a mystery to me
But I'd love to see
Black orchid, wild and free
People are
What people are
What people are
(People are what people are)
(What people are)
(What people are)
You just wanna be
But a mystery to me
But I'd love to see
Black orchid, wild and free
You just wanna be
But a mystery to me
But I'd love to see
Black orchid, wild and free
Black orchid
Blooming in the night
Black orchid
Blooming in the night
Black orchid
