Blackbird Girl
Blackbird girl, you spread your wings
And flew away one gray morning
I watched you go from down below
Until you disappeared, free and alone
(C) Blackbird girl, I couldn’t blame you
When you left behind the nothing that everything came to
Now you’ve got another life
Another man, and you’re another wife
In another nest, you’re moving on
But I still sing this blackbird song
(C)
Late at night, the ghosts all roam
Around this house we used to own
And though you’ve flown, you left a part
Of our old (dead) love, in my haunted heart
