Emily Plazek - Blackbird Lyrics
This song's been a long time comingSince all love songs began to playLaughter at the very startSomehow you knew you'd save my heartInnocence, naivetyOr cynical realityChoosing was the death of meI said “Comedian, please help me”Cuz I know blackbirds fly everywhereIn snowfall and summer airNo cliffs, no sea could scare themTheir song travels the world's endMoments of high victoryWhen all I see's what birds seeBare skin and pockets emptyChoose love as flight and I'll stay freeAs a blackbird,Just like blackbird,Like a blackbird,Oh, blackbirdBlackbird, ohBlackbird, ohBlackbird, oh, like a blackbirdThis song's been a long time comingSince ice cream cones and forest dreamsMiles, hours drivingHighway scenes, music divingAnd I'm proud to say I love youSmiled to hear you say "I love you, too"From years of never flyingTo blackbird's life undyingCuz I know blackbirds fly everywhereIn snowfall and summer airNo cliffs, no sea could scare themTheir song travels the world's endMoments of high victoryWhen all I see's what birds seeBare skin and pockets emptyChoose love as flight and I'll stay freeAs a blackbird,Just like blackbird,Like a blackbird,Oh, blackbirdBlackbird, ohBlackbird, ohBlackbird, oh, like a blackbird
