lyrics

A blackbird singing
On a moss upholstered stone,
Bluebells swinging,
Shadows wildly blow.

A song in the wood,
A ship on the sea,
The song for you,
and the ship was for me.

A blackbird singing,
I hear in my troubled mind,
Bluebells swinging
I see in a distant wind,

But sorrow and silence
are the wood's threnody,
the silence for you,
and the sorrow for me,

Oh the sorrow, the sorrow's for me

And I have all I need,
This song for you,
And the memory for me

A blackbird singing...

about

Spells and Curses New York, New York

Spells and Curses prove that despite our past trauma, surviving and making a better life is the ultimate revenge. Thereby creating music to explore one's "inner space", with songs that act as a “spell” to enhance the moment or a “curse” to damn it.
