Blackbird Lyrics

Beatles

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

This song is about the civil rights movement of the 1960s. "blackbird" being a black person. "take these broken wings and learn to fly," refers to the strength it takes to get back up after all of the horrible times black people endured, and Paul is saying, get back up again.
