Blackbirds

Blackbirds fly away from me

They are looking for a place to live

They don’t have a way to come home

But I know that they will be back

Moonlight, the city of the night

I am looking at the hollow eyes

Made up my mind, I’ll move along

Nobody can make me stay

There is no change in here

I am lost and ain’t nobody near

Walkin’ down the wrong way home

I'm alone in the middle of the night

I was lying to myself

I am lost and ain’t nobody near

Walkin down the wrong way home

Would you take me home to where I used to belong?

So far away, feeling so lonely

Would you take me home to where I used to belong?

So far away, feeling so lonely

Take me home...

Three years after you left home

Still looking for a place to live

It’s never too late to come home

the only place that will never change

Moonlight hiding in the night

I am looking at the hollow sky

Tears falling down my cheeks

I realize where I belong

There is no change in here

I am lost and ain’t nobody near

Walkin’ down the wrong way home

I'm alone in the middle of the night

I was lying to myself

I am lost and ain’t nobody near

Walkin down the wrong way home

Looking for a new beginning in the city light

What did Ithink I would find?

I left it all behind

Everything I thought I needed

All the love I couldn’t find was here all along

Right here at home

Would you take me home to where I used to belong?

So far away, feeling so lonely

Would you take me home to where I used to belong?

So far away, feeling so lonely

Take me home...
