Blackbird lyrics

The willow it weeps today

A breeze from the distance is calling your name

Unfurl your black wings and wait

Across the horizon it's coming to sweep you away

It's coming to sweep you away

[Chorus:]

Let the wind carry you home

Blackbird fly away

May you never be broken again

The fragile cannot endure

The wrecked and the jaded a place so impure

The static of this cruel world

Cause some birds to fly long before they've seen their day

Long before they've seen their day

[Chorus:]

Let the wind carry you home

Blackbird fly away

May you never be broken again

Beyond the suffering you've known

I hope you find your way

May you never be broken again

Ascend may you find no resistance

Know that you made such a difference

All you leave behind will live to the end

The cycle of suffering goes on

But memories of you stay strong

Someday I too will fly and find you again

[Chorus:]

Let the wind carry you home

Blackbird fly away

May you never be broken again

Beyond the suffering you've known

I hope you find your way

May you never be broken again

May you never be broken again
