Blackbird

Blackbird, blackbird, please fly away

You’ve been flying overhead, you’ve been darkening my day

And now you’ve got your shiny gold ring, but I feel you watching my moves

I see you waiting in the wings

And when I leave this town and when you know I’m not around

I feel it in my every bone, you are trying to get him all alone

Oh blackbird, blackbird, this town is small

I see your feathers dropping like hints, you don’t want me around at all

And when I go out with my friends for a flare, I see your beady black eyes

I feel your uninviting stare (stare… stare... stare)

And when I leave this town and when you know I’m not around

I feel it in my every bone, you are trying to get him all alone

Oh but blackbird, blackbird, my love is true

And all the stars are aligned, it’s such a captivating view

Blackbird, blackbird, please go away

I’m not gonna waste my time worrying what you’re gonna say
