Blackbird - Paula Morelenbaum, SWR Big Band

Blackbird singing in the dead of night

Take these broken wings and learn to fly

All your life

You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Blackbird singing in the dead of night

Take these sunken eyes and learn to see

All your life

You were only waiting for this moment to be free

Blackbird, fly, blackbird, fly

Into the light of the dark, black night

Blackbird, fly, blackbird, fly

Into the light of the dark, black night

Blackbird singing in the dead of night

Take these broken wings and learn to fly

All your life

You were only waiting for this moment to arise

You were only waiting

You were only waiting for this moment to arise
