For No One - Blackbird lyrics

Your day breaks

Your mind aches

You find that all

Her words of kindness

Linger on

When she no longer needs you

She wakes up

She makes up

She takes her time

And doesn't feel

She has to worry

She no longer needs you

And in her eyes you see nothing

No sign of love behind the tears

Cried for no one

A love that should have lasted years

You want her

You need her

And yet you don't believe her

When she says

Her love is dead

You think she needs you

And in her eyes you see nothing

No sign of love behind the tears

Cried for no one

A love that should have lasted years

You stay home

She goes out

She says that long ago

She knew someone

But now he's gone

She doesn't need him

Your day breaks

Your mind aches

There will be times

When all the things you said

Will fill your head

You won't forget her

And in her eyes you see nothing

No sign of love behind the tears

Cried for no one

A love that should have lasted years

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 a dark black night

Blackbird fly, blackbird fly

Into the light of a 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 be free

You were only waiting for this moment to arise

You were only waiting for this moment to be free

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
