There's a blackbird singing from a winter tree
And his tune is soft and haunting
It's the coming of the spring
All the leaves are being restored
And the vagaries getting bored
There are new dreams on the way
There's a road that I walked down just the other day
And it forbid me turning round
I admit I lost my way
And then I heard you like a whisper
Telling me to keep on straight
That mistakes are like dirt
And in time they're wiped away
Now there's a clock and many seas
That come between you and me
But the hours are weak
And the waters are deep
There was an argument ensue
And I was in the wrong
There were words being fired like bullets from a gun
And then into the equation
Shined the light of your good self
Everything was redeemed
You put that fight up on the shelf
And now those valley stars
Spark a light of dewry up above
And when I don't know where I'm at
At least I know where I'm from
I need you to love me
And help when I'm losing
And in return I will love you
And help when you don't win
There's a leaf that is skirting across the pavement grey
You're the sole beneath my shoe
And you ride the words I say
And as the blackbird sings
He reminds me from his tree
That we always gain more than we lose
Though at times it seems the other way
There's a clock and many seas
That come between you and me
But the hours are weak
And the waters are deep
I need you to love me
And help when I'm losing
And in return I will love you
And help when you don't win
