You were only waiting for this moment to arise Blackbird singing in the dead of night All your life Take these broken wings and learn to fly Blackbird fly, blackbird fly Into the light of the dark black night Take these sunken eyes and learn to see You

Can wait a long time for an answer Gets tossed all around and then lost in the world Something as hard as a prayer on your back Something as simple as boys and girls All you kids get out the back door I've never seen her this bad before She took all her

Here's a song I sing for you About a girl that I once knew She lived in a great big house With golden gates where servants bowed Unashamed I'd sit outside and wait for hours Hoping that she'd climb down from her ivory towers This beautiful girl as pretty

All my life I've been waiting for you My wonderful one Living all my life All my love Has been waiting for you My life is sublime Now that I'm

You give me hope to carry on You light up my days And fill my nights with song You light up my life So many nights I sit by my window Waiting for someone to sing me his song So many dream I kept deep inside me Alone in the dark but now you've come along

Are you a pusher or are you a puller? If you're willing to wait for the love of your life Please wait by the line I pull the weight towards me And I lack the zest of a lemon, looking forward Unless I have a woman pushing me And you know dispersive prisms

Don't ask me why Don't wait for answers Just take your chances All the waiters in your grand cafe Leave their tables when you blink Every dog must have his everyday Every drunk must have his drink All your life you had to stand in line Still you're

Now you're here and everything's changing Suddenly life means so much I can't wait to wake up tomorrow And find out this promise is true I will never have to go back to The day before you I had all but given up On finding the one that I could fall into

You thrill me, you delight me You please me, you excite me You're all that I've been yearning for I love you, I adore you I lay my life before you I only want you all the more And finally it seems my lonely days are through I, I've been in love before I

You give me hope To carry on You light up my days And fill my nights with song You light up my life So many nights I sit by my window Waiting for someone to sing me his song So many dreams I kept deep inside me
