Blackbird

Warm as the sun
You were the one who outshone me
In the darkness
Everyone went away
You were the one who adored me
And it's so hard
To say goodbye to you
So hard
When i want to carry you everywhere
Everywhere
So i don't forget
I'll carry you
Everywhere
Everywhere
So i don't forget
But there's a blackbird singing
How long have you been hiding?
Lost in the rain
You always prayed we would find a way
We were watching old movies in our
Little technicolor hideaway
And on that soft screen
The beautiful ladies were movie queens
They'd glide on the floor
Singing melodies, melodies that i can't forget
Oh love's sweetest reverie, melodies
That i can't forget
But there's a blackbird
Singing
How long have you been hiding?
We've been through so much
We've been through everything together
We've been through so much
We've been through everything together
Now there's a blackbird
Singing
How long have you been hiding?
How long have you been hiding?
