Heard a little bird in the treetop singing
Heard a little bird in the treetop singing
Heard a little bird in the treetop singing
It was a redwing blackbird, a redwing blackbird
A redwing blackbird, a redwing blackbird
Coming to my window when I couldn’t sing, he sang to me
Don’t you know if there’s a way to hurt, I’ll find it
Been hanging on a love that was unrequited
Started from the heart, but I got misguided
Going home is hard when you’re uninvited
Living in a cage ain’t so bad ‘til you wanna be free
It was a redwing blackbird, a redwing blackbird
A redwing blackbird, a redwing blackbird
Coming to my window when I couldn’t sing, he sang to me
It was a redwing blackbird, a redwing blackbird
A redwing blackbird, a redwing blackbird
Coming to my window when I couldn’t sing, he sang to me
Tell me how am I gonna sing when my heart is breaking
Oh how am I gonna sing when my heart is breaking
I’m afraid to be alone, but I can’t give in
No, I never wanna be in your arms again
Love should never feel like a cage, it should be the wind
It was a redwing blackbird, a redwing blackbird
A redwing blackbird, a redwing blackbird
Coming to my window when I couldn’t sing, he sang to me
It was a redwing blackbird, a redwing blackbird
A redwing blackbird, a redwing blackbird
Coming to my window when I couldn’t sing, he sang to me
I wish that I was sitting on my branch in the tree of life
Far above this swamp of lies
I’m gonna rise and sing, taking wing against the stormy sky
I wish that I was sitting on my branch in the tree of life
Far above this swamp of lies
I’m gonna rise and sing, taking wing against the stormy sky
I’m gonna fly
Fly far away from here
Wishing he could stay but the season’s changing
Until I learn to fly, I know he’s out there waiting
I can hear the song coming through my dreams
Now every day I wake workin’ on my wings
And every time I think I won’t make it, I can hear him sing
It was a redwing blackbird, a redwing blackbird
A redwing blackbird, a redwing blackbird
Coming to my window when I couldn’t sing, he sang to me
It was a redwing blackbird, a redwing blackbird
A redwing blackbird, a redwing blackbird
Coming to my window when I couldn’t sing, he sang to me
It was a redwing blackbird, a redwing blackbird
A redwing blackbird, a redwing blackbird
Coming to my window when I couldn’t sing, he sang to me
