Lyrics

Blackbird

[Verse 1]

Blackbird singin' in the dead of night

Take these broken wings and learn to fly

All your life

Oh, you were only waitin' for this moment to arise

[Verse 2]

Blackbird singin' in the dead of night

Take these sunken eyes and learn to see

All your life

Oh, you were only waitin' for this moment to be free

[Chorus]

Blackbird fly, blackbird fly

Into the light of the dark, black night

Blackbird fly, blackbird fly

Into the light of the dark, black night

[Verse 3]

Blackbird singin' in the dead of night

Take these broken wings and learn to fly

All your life

Oh, you were only waitin' for this moment to arise

You were only waitin' for this moment to arise

Oh, you were only waitin' for this moment to arise

Oh, you were only waitin' for this moment to arise
