This song's been a long time coming
Since all love songs began to play
Laughter at the very start
Somehow you knew you'd save my heart
Innocence, naivety
Or cynical reality
Choosing was the d**h of me
I said "Comedian, please help me"
Cuz I know blackbirds fly everywhere
In snowfall and summer air
No cliffs, no sea could scare them
Their song travels the world's end
Moments of high victory
When all I see's what birds see
Bare skin and pockets empty
Choose love as flight and I'll stay free
As a blackbird,
Just like blackbird,
Like a blackbird,
Oh, blackbird
Blackbird, oh
Blackbird, oh
Blackbird, oh, like a blackbird
This song's been a long time coming
Since ice cream cones and forest dreams
Miles, hours driving
Highway scenes, music diving
And I'm proud to say I love you
Smiled to hear you say "I love you, too"
From years of never flying
to blackbird's life undying
Cuz I know blackbirds fly everywhere
In snowfall and summer air
No cliffs, no sea could scare them
Their song travels the world's end
Moments of high victory
When all I see's what birds see
Bare skin and pockets empty
Choose love as flight and I'll stay free
As a blackbird,
Just like blackbird,
Like a blackbird,
Oh, blackbird
Blackbird, oh
Blackbird, oh
Blackbird, oh, like a blackbird
