Blackbird

Alessandro Riccobono

So many things I'd like to say
Kind of hard to put them into words
Never knew it could feel this way
To care for someone who's not yours

Little blackbird, fly away
From this vulture and his clouds
Little blackbird, won't you stay
And we'll pretend we're good somehow

Open up your wounded wings
We'll put your feathers back in place
One by one, day by day
'cause nothing's sweet as your embrace
And when the sun shines on your face
All my troubles melt away
'cause your smile is worth my pain
Something I cannot explain

Little blackbird, fly away
From this vulture and his clouds
Little blackbird, won't you stay?
This noise in me is just too loud

And if there ever was a god, if I ever was to pray
My only thought would be to save
My baby blackbird from this rain
And shelter her from all the pain
And not to dare to break her flight
Or take her to paradise
'cause I'd rather burn in flames
Than to dress in black in shame

Holding your fragile shape
So tender I hope I won't break
But inside such strength and grace
I hope you'll be aware of one day
My biggest pain, what makes me cry
Is not having you by my side
Not a day, not a night goes by
Without hoping I'd see you fly
