Time will bring the real end of our trial
One day there'll be no remnants, no trace,
No residual feelings within you
One day you won't remember me.

Your face will be the reason I smile
But I will not see what I cannot have forever
I'll always love you.
I hope you feel the same.

Oh, you played me dirty, your game was so bad
You toyed with my affection
Had to fill out my prescription for the remedy
I had to set you free.

Away from me
To see clearly
The way that love can be
when you are not with me
I had to lead
I had to live
I had to leave
I had to love

If I can't have you
[ Maxwell Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]
Let love set you free
To fly your pretty wings around.

Pretty wings, your pretty wings, your
Pretty wings. Pretty wings around.

I came wrong you were right
Transformed your love into light
Baby believe me, I'm sorry I told you lies.
I turned day into night
Sleep till I die a thousand times
Ah, I should've showed you
Better nights, better times
Better days, and I miss you more and more

If I can't have you
Let love set you free
To fly your pretty wings around.

Pretty wings, your pretty wings, your
Pretty wings. Pretty wings around.

Pretty wings, your pretty wings, your
Pretty wings. Pretty wings around.

I don't know if Maxwell wrote this song, but the lyrics really touch me, and I love the song. I read where someone mentioned "This woman's work" - that is a remake - that isn't Maxwell's song - but it is also one with beautiful lyrics that touch me.

this song is beautiful. It makes me think of my ex and i when we were together we did eachother wrong but in the end we still loved each other and to this day we still love eachother even though we cant be together it just would never work between us when maxwell says " i should have shown you better nights better times better days... i miss you more and more" i identify with it. i feel like maybe if i had have been a better person to my ex we might be together even though its not totally my fault we are not together every time i hear that part i almost want to cry and wish for my ex back... I still love you with all my heart noland if you ever see this love always emily

I think this song is saying that the guy is the blame and he is the asshole that perhaps cause her to play on him. However, he finds out that she was the real deal but because of what went down they can not regain the past so the best that she can be for him is pleasent memory and he hopes she feels the same

This song reminds me of me and my kids' father. We did each other wrong and we are still friends. We know that we are no good for each other and we just want whats best for the bth.

For me, this song represents my first love and how messy things got in the end. Although we loved each other so much, we hurt each other deeply. It got to a point where we needed to leave the relationship. There will always be some regrets when it come to her. We never stop paying for the hearts we break even though we move on to new love. That's what the lyrics mean to me.

I HATE THIS SONG......JUST SEEMS TO ME THAT THE GUY IS BLAMING THE GIRL (WHATS NEW) AND MAKING EXCUSES FOR WHY HE IS A CHEATING ASSHOLE. LOVE IS SIMPLE IF U TRULY LOVE SOMEONE YOU ARE FAITHFUL AND HONEST END OF STORY. YOU DONT CHEAT ON THEM THEN MAKE EXCUSES THAT DONT EVEN MAKE SENCE. IF GUYS WOULD LEARN HOW TO THINK WIH THERE HEARTS AND NOT THERE PENIS MAYBE THEY COULD BE THE RIGHT GUYS FOR THAT GOOD WOMAN THEY HAVE SITTING AT HOME. SORRY TO BE SO FORWARD BUT IM SO SICK OF WATCHING MEN HAVE THESE BEAUTIFUL FAITHFUL WOMEN AT HOME WHILE THEY GO OUT CHEATING UNTIL THEY EVENTUALLY FALL IN LOVE WITH ONE OF THE SKANKS THERE SCREWING ON THE SIDE. HERE IS A GOOD IDEA IF YOU WANT TO HAVE SEX WITH ANYTHING THAT WALKS WHY DONT YOU TRY BEING SINGLE DING DING DING.

Well actually he wrote this song about his wife. She killed herself after she found out that he had cheated on her. If you interpet the lyrics you will notice that the lyrics were meant for his late wife. He was doing the cheatin.

I had to set you free.
Away from me
To see clearly
The way that love can be
when you are not with me
I had to lead
I had to live
I had to leave
I had to love

In these lyrics Maxwell is sayin he was doing the running around and when she died she saw how real love was and not the love he was showing her by cheating. I still love him though. And I will be at his concert.

I did not pay much attention to Maxwell untill i heard this song, it touch my life, i just came out of a relationship with my boyfriend i didnt understand why he left me because i was so good to him. Listening to this song made me understand why he had to let me go, im still hurtin, but listening to this song everyday helps me heal. LOVE YOU ANDREW 4 EVER

Absolutely love this song. I appreciate the different breakdowns posted of what the song means. I know in the first verse he got hurt and in the second he hurt someone. The lesson we all should take from this, don't hold on to a good person if you can't do them right. Don't cause more heartache than what is necessary. If it is meant to be it will be, when you are a better person.

Pretty Wings is simply a spirtual lesson on true REAL LOVE from a real man's point of view. It is for all the women who have been done wrong at some point in a relationship. This song is not meant to break up any existing relationship, but simply teach you real meaning of true love.

in true understanding of this song...I believe maxwell is speaking in first and third person. The beginning of the song it's first person. He is talking himself all the way to the point where he says "I hope you feel the same way".. There after he says " Oh, you played me dirty, your game was so bad" at this point he is speaking in third person. He is reciting the words the woman said to him it's her pain at that point. Later in the song he states "I came wrong, you were right" this is the first person point of view where he is admitting to his wrongs! and stating how he should have been in the relationship the things he should have done that he didn't do. Then as the adage goes "if you love something enough you let it go and if it returns it was meant to be" thats what he does. Instead of hounding her to stay with him, he is willing to let something he loves so much go and give her the choice. This is a lesson in love. If you listen to "This Woman's Work" you will see it is similar in content. It's a break up. He says "All the things we should have said that were never said, All the things we should have done that were never did, All the things we should have given, but I never did"...The man makes good music!

Actually, I was in a situation where I was hurt really bad and I feel like I could just as easily dedicate this song to the other person. I have decided that life moves on so why not release that person to love someone else if we are not meant to be despite the love that I will always have for him.

This is such a beautiful song. It makes me want to cry every time i hear it ge is an amazing artist with an amazing voice that needs much recognition. Not every one has talent like this and i greatly appreciate him gracing us with his blessing.

No he says she won't remember him or the trails of their relationship. The part with "you played me dirty, you played me so bad" sort of throws me but I can only guess that she gave him her all & he feel in love (which most men call game) and he couldn't handle it so he had to set her free. I guess...either way it is a great song about moving on from a relationship that is hurting you.... Lesson learned here!!

No doubt everyone that has ever been in a relationship understandswhat this means... I am going through the same thing except he wont set me free and I want to be.. but at the same time We both stay even though we both know it isnt working... so sad. I love the song.

MAXWELL FANS, I'm sorry but I can't never understand what the man is saying. So I looked up the lyrics. One minute it's her fault and he'll never remember her anyway. Then it's his fault, and he'll always love her. I ...thought you wasn't going to remember her? Now, fly away pretty wings: What? Is he on Angle Dust or something?

This Song Has So Much Meaning.If A Guy/Girl Has This Much Courage To Be Honest With Himself/Herself && His/Her Lover. HE/SHE IS A REAL MAN/WOMAN !!! No Doubt About It This Song Can Go Both Ways.

I can actually relate to this song because im going throught the same situation. I was hanging on to relationship that wasnt strong anymore, but there is no doubt that love isnt there.
