  • Blackbird came to me
    She sang her melody
    Yeah, she sang
    I promise you I won't fly away

    Blackbird tell no lies
    Blackbird, you caught my eye
    But the Raine has taught me that you will fly away
    Just as soon as the skies turn gray

    Thank you, Raine
    Thank you, Raine
    Wash away all my pain
    Every time I call your name

    Blackbird in my pie
    Beautiful clouds
    Beautiful skies today
    You'll chase them until your dying day

    Thank you, Raine
    Thank you, Raine
    Wash away all my shame
    Every time I call your name

    When I'm sad you soothe my soul
    You give love like it's easy, yeah
    Come this springtime all your seeds they grow
    When Blackbirds come and go

    Blackbird, tell no lies
    Blackbird, tell no lies
    Blackbird, tell no lies
    Blackbird, tell no lies
    Thank you Raine for clearing my eyes
