Blackbird
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Blackbird, sit on my shoulder and tell me a song
When I cry, do you hear in colour or black and white, bird?
The morning is new, but the feeling is old
Intervene, blackbird, and shorten the road
Blackbird, the way I imagined love was wrong
I've come to love him like I couldn't fathom, blackbird
What I tap away at, I fear, and I long
Intervene, blackbird, and shorten the road
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Blackbird, slip into my slumber and show me a song
When I dream, do you see in colour or at all, bird?
The picture is peaceful, but I dream alone
Intervene, blackbird, and shorten the road
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Hmm-hmm, ooh-ooh
