Blackbird by The Beatles

This song has been living in my mind for some days now, after I saw its performance by Paul McDonald and Kendra Chantelle in American Idol's 10th season. I'm quite interested in following Paul's career, he has an unique voice and attitude and I'd love to know where he takes it. Anyway, I now wake up thinking about it Blackbird, I drive singing it (some might say it's hard to call it singing but I try), I go to sleep humming it. And now, with so much social tension around the world, there's no better time to share it here:


Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these sunken eyes and learn to see
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to be free

Blackbird fly, blackbird fly
Into the light of the dark black night

Blackbird fly, blackbird fly
Into the light of the dark black night

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
You were only waiting for this moment to arise


Thank you Paul McCartney, Thank you Beatles
