lyrics

BLACKBIRD ON THE WIRE
(Mark Utley - Sleep Cat Music, BMI)

Baby, I can’t breathe as I watch you sleep
You have no idea, the secrets that I keep
Underneath our bed, a suitcase packed to go
Someone waits for me
And I just don’t love you anymore

Somewhere down the road, maybe time will show
If I’m right or wrong, baby, I don’t know
But I just can’t take the way I make you cry
I’m not worthy of any of the love you have for me

I don’t really know why we fell apart
I just feel so sad for your broken heart
By tomorrow night, baby, I’ll be gone
Blackbird on the wire
Singing me a song to bring me home
