Black Bird
Lyrics and music by Paul McCartney and John Lennon
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
Black bird 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 for this moment to arise,
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
(Try Evan Rachel Wood’s version from the Across the Universe soundtrack. Holy crap on toast.)
Kurt's version on "Glee" was pretty damn good too.
This is my alllllll time fave Beatles song. And I do LOVE the RW version too…thank goodness for Pandora, no?
I absolutely love this song. Sits close to my heart. (Hugs)Indigo
