Bettye LaVette - Blackbirds

Blackbird

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
