‘Forever and a Day’ Lyrics
---------------------------------------
You wanted forever and a day
But a day is all I could give away
You touched my heart, it is true
But it doesn't belong to you
Oh, it doesn't belong to you
My handsome poet, with golden eyes
Today I am yours, and today you are mine
But please do not ask when you'll see me again
For my heart belongs to another man
Oh, my heart belongs to another man
Such piercing eyes, as if you're mesmerized
Like I was some kind of myth
Someone you would die to be with
Such piercing eyes, mesmerized
Like I was some kind of siren
You made me smile, feel admired and free
Together with you on this deserted beach
This is how I will remember us
And I hope you will forget me not
Oh, I hope you will forget me not
Such piercing eyes, as if you're mesmerized
Like I was some kind of myth
Someone you would die to be with
Such piercing eyes, mesmerized
Like I was some kind of siren
And you would swim the wildest waters to get on my island
You wanted forever and a day
But a day is all I could give away
You wanted forever and a day
But a day is all I could give away
You wanted forever and a day
But a day is all I could give away
Such a sweet song, how nice. Yet, with a note of quiet sadness to it, in typical Blackbriar fashion. Blackbriar can take the goth aesthetic to the beach, and make poetry in the process. In short: gothically beautiful! 🖤
The melancholy is conveyed 100% by Zora's vocals. But how... this level of nuances is insane.
In my head at least, this is taking place in the head of the siren of Arms Of The Ocean. She's not driven by malice, but is supernaturally dissociated from reality.
This is what she believes is happening when she lures the sailor into the ocean's final embrace.
Of course this could also be one of the Until Eternity pair having a side fling because she hasn't found the fated partner yet.
Originally inspired by the series ''Poldark'', the song grew into having another story. It tells about a Victorian lady, dressed in a black mourning gown. She lost her love a long time ago and can't move on. One day, she decides to wear a day dress and spend the day with someone she has worm feelings for, in order to to see if there could be another future for her, only to realise eventually that her heart still belongs to the one she lost.
The artwork shows one of the ''Dark Euphony'' flying hourglasses, in which there is the lady, stuck in time, failing to open up again. It symbolises the worlds of night/day and death/life.
Thank you for the info, it helps put the song into perspective
Every new Blackbriar song is poetry. ❤
I've literally just finished (re)listening to your entire discography
Wow, thank you so much for listening!!!
There is something so special about Blackbriar... such eerily beautiful lyrics and melodies. I'm in love ❤
Blackbriar has become my favorite band, haven't had one in a long, long time
The talent of this band is unsurpassed. It's rare when every song that is put out is amazing! This is one of those bands.
So true !
Out of certainly more then 150 metal bands I know, I just had this rare thing with the band Yearning (less popular, more dark, especially in the lyrics). But Blackbriar has some 95% of their songs that hits me right in the middle of my heart. Yearning was more like 80%. (And also, Yearning definitely belongs to the past as their genius singer, founder, guitarist and lyricist passed away in 2010, where Blackbriar is the present!)
Очень интересная композиция. Партия ударных - особо хороша. Скрипки - это было просто шикарно!
Спасибо за музыку!
Everytime this band releases new songs feels like Christmas Mourning ❤❤💚💚
Hearing the song again and again. It's so beautiful.
...and not to mention the constant internal auto-pay in our minds 😊
Zora magnífica,exuberante,performática ao extremo,lindíssima,bela banshe marmeid ❤
Oh my this is so goooood!!!😭😭😭 How many people here are dying to see them live?? Because I'm so wishing they continue to grow as a group so they make super big tours and I'm able to get a ticket❤❤❤
Увы, времена Evanescence и готического метала канули в лету. Теперь такую музыку слушают только в узких кругах :(
@@untergangshieroglypheлучше слушать хорошую музыку в узких кругах, чем плохую в широких
Blackbriars always grow. They just need time, sun and rain, and love 😉🪴
When I compare your song writing from the early days to today, it shows that you've really come a long way. I really love everything you've written since "The cause of shipwreck"!
Amazingly beautiful song. Can't wait to receive the album. Zora's voice is just outstanding and one of a kind. Love it.
This song is like a dance a waltz in another time, like if I was living other past life before; makes me feel so nostalgic.
This one's got a nostalgia+greatness+distance vibe that's totally awesome and unique, and it'll grab you right in the gut!
As a human being on earth these days, we will probably and unfortunately face or witness tortures, or rapes, or harassments, loss of loved ones, tragedies, natural disasters, wars, injuries, diseases, injustices, pain, terrorism, terrors or nightmares.
But... as a human being on earth these days, we can listen to Zora and Blackbriar.
So, ...it's worth it!
I was asleep and in my dreams, I dreamed with the song Stone Cold Body. Wake up, I watch a video on UA-cam and the next one that appears to me is this video. I opened it without looking at the rest of the videos on the UA-cam home page. Excellent as always. His songs are fabulous and listening to Zora is like listening to my own Selkie☺
I hope to meet the whole band someday, but economically it is not so easy to go to Europe for a Latin American like me. Greetings and hugs from Mexico, hopefully one day we can meet in person.
Such a beautiful song! This will make a huge impact during a live show; I can't wait to witness that!
Как всегда великолепно 😊
She has immense emotion in her voice, Zora has a voice that is heaven sent, I think it would be awesome to hear her voice alongside Tony Kakko or Tommy Karevik!❤⏳
I'd love to see a duet version of Arms Of The Ocean, with Tommy Karevik as the sailor and Zora the siren, rather than her playing both parts.
@@sirgog Oh my clever human I’m on board!
In a world positively teeming with bands trying to be heard, it helps if you can be unique. Blackbriar is such a band. As soon as Zora Cock emits her first note, you know it's them. It's not so much the technical aspects of her voice, but that completely unique "lost child" whine that gets deep inside your mind and haunts it.
I just adore them and their Bothers Grimm folk-tale Gothic Symphonic Metal tunes. This glorious number is typical, dreamy, haunting, captivating. The production is excellent, the arrangements superb, the structure perfect. Wonderful. A must-own. My Score: Excellent 5*
*Zora’s voice just melts your troubles away*
Such a beautiful song. Such a beautiful woman. Such a beautiful voice she has. I'm just glad you exist, Blackbriar and Zora!
I can't stop listening this wonderful piece of art! And the video is melancholic, sweet and romantic, just perfect for the song! Thank you for showing us your art once more! I can't wait for the album!❤
My ears were blessed, i'm in love again. So proud of my favorite band♡
2:44 "like i was some kind of siren" Ma'am truthfully you are a siren, not a single day must go by without listening to your voice singing.
Всегда радуюсь когда выходит новый клип! Приятно слушать и приятно смотреть! Спасибо!
Stunning track in every way. Musically, lyrically and production of the highest standards. Blackbriar are on the favourite list. This is brilliant and I urge everyone to go out and support them.
The North Sea setting is so beautiful, BlackBriar has done it again and with their music they've stolen my heart, soothed my soul, rocked me to my core & left me begging for more. Thank You.
Thank you so much for your beautiful words
Gostei muito! Ótimo!!!
Your songs are always more than a set of beautiful melody and words. These are pure emotions. The main task of art is to evoke feelings in the human soul. And you guys are doing it excellent. Spasibo!
Мрачная романтика! 🤘 Красиво!
This song pulls on my heartstrings so much 😍 It's melancholic and beautiful, like I'm floating in warm dark water 🖤 I can't wait for the new album! I'm so glad I pre-ordered 🥰
This instrumental it's banger!
There it is! I love it so much ❤
So pretty!!! I honestly can't wait for the full album. I hope one day I can come and see a live show because that would be awesome ❤
Blackbriar never disappoint.. 🖤
Loved it! Seems to describe a forbidden or impossible love story, great as always... A dark euphony
The feeling of hopelessness and void it gives at the end, yet given so softly and poetically, very "love metal"-ly...And the guitar...what a balad!!!
This song is mesmerizing and deep! I love it haven't regretted it yet when I first came across this band!
I love the melody and lyrics so much! 🖤🤍🖤
Blackbriar never disappoint. I can't wait for the new album.
Fantastic song and a beautiful video - her voice gives me Sharon Den Adel-vibes...
For those of you having trouble connecting to the lyrics try this. Watch the series Poldark. There is a point where Demelza and Hugh meet on a deserted beach and she gives him a day but is still in love with Ross even though their relationship is strained so she can't give him forever. Hugh was a poet with golden eyes. This song is just so beautifully written! Zora would make a great Demelza. 🌹❤
Not familiar with that show but your explanation was well said, my understanding of the words is now much better.
Or it can also tell the story of a woman trying to move on after losing her previous partner (presumably the partner died), she enters a new relationship but realises she's still in love with her departed partner even though she genuinely likes the person she started seeing.
What's kind of trouble? There's a boy who's being ignored by a beautiful woman. That's all.
Thanks!
I am mesmerized by how beautiful this song is👏❤ 💐.
Now this is exactly what I love Blackbriar for! Finally, a song reminiscence of the heaviness in Until Eternity. Absolutely my favourite song on the album so far!
Only Blackbriar can make a beach on a beautiful sunny day look dark, mystical and gloomy lol I recently heard Deadly Diminuendo casually and since I have all your albums in loop 24/7! Los amo gente! 🖤🖤🖤I hope to see you live here in Argentina maybe in the future, we love rock/methal 🤘
This song evoked such chaotic feelings on me. But I think that's the point of art, you don't have to feel comfortable (to me the lyrics kinda make me feel anxious and sometimes I have a panic attack reading the lyrics) to be beautiful, magnificent and out of this world. Blackbriar never disappoint, NEVER. Please, be immortal.
Awesome song and video! Zora never fails to please!
you're absolutely kind of myth and siren ✨ ❤️
I'm a big fan of this group's work, it's cool, such a voice and the sound of the song, it's just a pleasure to listen to, very cool ❤
Always a pleasure hearing such beautiful music.
Amazing job, Wish I lived on the other side to see you all in concert!!
Magic ✨✨✨
