Lyrics
Blackbird singing in the dead of night
I took my broken wings and learned how to fly
All of my life
I have waited for this moment to arise
Blackbird singing in the dead of night
I took my sunken eyes and taught my own self how to see
All of my life
I have waited for this moment to be free
Blackbird, fly
Blackbird, fly
Into the light of the cold dark night
Blackbird singing in the dead of night
I took my broken wings and taught my own self how to fly
All of my life
I have waited for this moment to arise
All of my life
I have waited and waited and waited
For this moment to be free
Writer(s): Paul Mccartney, John Lennon
