Blue popstar Lee Ryan has unveiled a new song “Mockingbirds” with an accompanying music video directed and animated by Anna Pearson.
The slow-burning ballad follows his comeback single “Ghost”, released last year.
Lee’s new album is expected to be released sometime this year. It is his first LP since 2005 debut self-titled album.
During these years, the British multi-talented artist released several solo singles with modest success.
He also reunited with his Blue band mates to represent the United Kingdom at the Eurovision Song Contest 2011 in Düsseldorf, Germany.
With the band, he released other two albums: Roulette in 2013 and Colours in 2015.
Lyrics:
They say that if you love it, let it go
And if it comes back, you know
You know, it’s yours
But they don’t live life in this goldfish bowl
They just assume that they know
They know it all
So tell me, is this how it ends
Trial by fair weathered friends
So if this is over
Before we begun to
Show each other lovin’
How could we know
When the mockingbirds, they cover the sun
Its over before it’s begun
Those sticks and stones they throw my break-a-bones
They say shit that they want us to believe
Unless those words come straight from your soul
Then they will never hurt me
Never thought they’d taken you in
Can’t believe it’s happened again
So if this is over
Before we begun to
Show each other lovin’
How could we know
When the mockingbirds, they cover the sun
Its over before it’s begun
There are so many hearts
That have been torn apart
And the question that you need to ask
We let the mockingbirds have the last laugh
Cause if this is over
Before we begun to
Show each other lovin’
How could we know
When the mockingbirds, they cover the sun
Its over before it’s begun
Its over before it’s begun
