Rumer – Blackbird lyrics
Warm as the sun
You were the one who outshone me
In the darkness, everyone went away
You were the one who adored me

And it's so hard to say goodbye to you
So hard when I want to carry you everywhere, everywhere
So I don't forget
I'll carry you everywhere, everywhere
So I don't forget

But there's a blackbird singing
How long have you been hiding?

Lost in the rain
You always prayed you would find a way
We were watching old movies in
Our little technicolor hideaway

And on that soft screen
The beautiful ladies were movie queens
They'd glide on the floor singing melodies
Melodies that I can't forget
Oh, love's sweetest reverie
Melodies that I can't forget

But there's a blackbird singing
How long have you been hiding?

We've been through so much
We've been through everything together
We've been through so much
We've been through everything together

But there's a blackbird singing
How long have you been hiding?
How long have you been hiding?
