Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these sunken eyes and learn to see
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to be free

Blackbird, fly
Blackbird, fly into the light of a dark, black night

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Blackbird, fly
Blackbird, fly into the light of a dark, black night

I can't beilieve this moment's come
It's so incredible that we're alone
There's so much to be said and done
It's impossible not to be overcom
Will you forgive me if I feel this way
Cuz we've just met - tell me that's OK
So take this feeling and make it grow
Never let it - never let it go

(Don't let go of thte things you believe in)
You give me something that I can believe in
(Don't let go of this moment in time)
Go of this moment in time
(Don't let go of things that I'm feeling)
I can't explain the things that I'm feeling
(Don't let go)
Np, I won't let go

Now would you mind if I bared my soul
If I came right out and said you're beautiful
Cuz there's something here I can't explain
I feel I'm diving into driving rain
You get my senses running wild

Ican't resist your sweet, sweet smile
So take this feeling'n make it grow
Never let it - never let it go

[후렴]
I've been waiting all my life
To make this moment feel so right
The feel of you just fills the night
So c'mon - just hold on tight

*Song For A Winter`s Night
The lamp is burning low upon my table top the snow is softly falling The air is still
in the silence of my room I hear your voice softly calling
If I could only have you near to breathe a sigh or two I would be happy just to hold the hands I love on this winters night with you
Smoke is rising in the shadows overhead my glass is almost empty I read again between the lines upon each page, the words of love you sent me
If I could know within my heart that you were lonely too I would be happy just to hold the hands I love on this winters night with you
The Fire is dying my lamp is growing dim shades of night are lifting morning light steals across my window pane where webs of snow are drifting
If I could only have you near to breathe a sigh or two I would be happy just to hold the hands I love on this winters night with you And you'll be once again with me

your love is better than ice cream
better than anything else
that i've tried
and your love is
better than ice cream
everyone here knows how to cry
and it's a long way down
it's a long way down
it's a long way down to the place
where we started from

your love is better than chocolate
better than anything else
that i've tried
oh love is better than chocolate
everyone here knows how to cry
and it's a long way down
long way down
long way down to the place

As the walls are closing in
And the colours fade to black
And my eyes are falling fast and deep into me
And I follow the tracks that lead me down
And I never follow what's right
And they wonder sometimes
when they see all the
Sadness and pain the truth begins to light

CHORUS
'Cause I can't see no reason
What is blind cannot see
'Cause I want what is pleasin'
All I take should be free
What I rob from the innocent ones
What I'd steal from the womb

If I cried me a river of all my confessions
Would I drown in my shallow regret
As the walls are closing in
And the colours fade to black
And the night is falling fast and deep
into the sea
And in the darkness all that I can see
The frightened and the weak
Are forced to cling to mistakes
they know nothing of
At mercy are the meek

Hold on
Hold on to yourself
for this is gonna hurt like hell.

Hold on
Hold on to yourself.
You know that only time can tell

what is it in me that refuses to believe
this isn't easier than the real thing.

My love
you know that you're my best friend.
You know that I'd do anything for you
and my love
let nothing come between us
my love for you is strong and true.

Am I in heaven here or
am I...
At the crossroads I am standing.

So now you're sleeping peaceful
I lie awake and pray
that you'll be strong tomorrow
and will see another day
and we will praise it
and love the light that brings a smile
across your face.

Oh god
if you're out there won't you hear me.
I know we're never talked before

and oh god
the man I love is leaving
won't you take him when he comes to your door.

Am I in heaven here or
am I in hell
at the crossroads I am standing.

So now you're sleeping peaceful
I lie awake and pray
that you'll be strong tomorrow
and we will see another day
and we will praise it
and love the light that brings a smile
across your face

Hold on
hold on to yourself
for this is gonna hurt like hell.

Hey your glass is empty,
it's a hell of a long way home,
Why don't you let me take you,
it's no good to go alone,
I never would have opened up
but you seemed so real to me,
After all the bullshit I've heard
it's refreshing not to see,
I don't have to pretend,
she doesn't expect it from me

So don't tell me I
haven't been good to you,
Don't tell me I
haven't been there for you
Just tell me why
nothing is good enough

Hey little girl would you like some candy,
your momma said that it's o.k.,
The door is open come on outside,
no I can't come out today,
It's not the wind that cracked your shoulder
and threw you to the ground,
Who's there that makes you so afraid
you're shaken to the bone,
You know I don't understand,
you deserve so much more than this

So don't tell me why
he's never been good to you,
Don't tell me why
he's never been there for you,
And I'll tell you that why
is simply not good enough,
So just let me try
and I will be good to you
Just let me try
and I will be there for you,
I'll show you why
you're so much more than good enough

* I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories

Remember the good times that we had?
I let them slip away from us when things got bad
How clearly I first saw you smilin' in the sun
Wanna feel your warmth upon me, I wanna be the one

* Repeat

I'm so tired but I can't sleep
Standin' on the edge of something much too deep
It's funny how we feel
so much but we cannot say a word
We are screaming inside, but we can't be heard

But I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories

I'm so afraid to love you,
but more afraid to loose
Clinging to a past that doesn't let me choose
Once there was a darkness,
deep and endless night
You gave me everything you had,
oh you gave me light

And I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories

And I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories
Weep not for the memories

Adia I do believe I've failed you
Adia I know I've let you down
Don't you know I tried so hard
To love you in my way?
It's easy....let it go...

Adia, I'm empty since you left me
I try to find a way to carry on
I search myself and everyone
To see where we went wrong
There's no one left to finger
There's no one left to blame
There's no one left to talk to, honey
And there ain't no one to buy our innocence

'Cause we are born innocent
Believe me Adia
We are still innocent
It's easy, we all falter
Does it matter?

Adia, I tought that we could make it
I know I can't change the way you feel
I leave you with your misery
A friend who won't betray
I'll pull you from your tower
I'll take away your pain
Show you all the beauty you possess
If only you'd let yourself believe

That we are born innocent
Believe me Adia
We are still innocent
It's easy, we all falter
Does it matter?

'Cause we are born innocent
Believe me Adia
We are still innocent
It's easy, we all falter
Does it matter?
Believe me Adia
We are still innocent
'Cause we are born innocent
Believe me Adia
We are still innocent
It's easy, we all falter
Does it matter?

I have a smile
stretched from ear to ear
to see you walking down the road

we meet at the lights
I stare for a while
the world around disappears

just you and me
on this island of hope
a breath between us could be miles

let me surround you
my sea to your shore
let me be the calm you seek

oh and every time I'm close to you
there's too much I can't say
and you just walk away

and I forgot
to tell you
I love you
and the night's
too long
and cold here
without you
I grieve in my condition
for I cannot find the strength to say I need you so

oh and every time I'm close to you
there's too much I can't say
and you just walk away

and I forgot
to tell you
I love you
and the night's
too long
and cold here
without you

What ravages of spirit
conjured this temptuous rage
created you a monster
broken by the rules of love
and fate has lead you through it
you do what you have to do
and fate has led you through it
you do what you have to do ...

and I have the sense to recognize that
I don't know how to let you go
every moment marked
with apparitions of your soul
I'm ever swiftly moving
trying to escape this desire
the yearning to be near you
I do what I have to do
the yearning to be near you
I do what I have to do
but I have the sense to recognize

that I don't know how
to let you go
I don't know how
to let you go

a glowing ember
burning hot
burning slow
deep within I'm shaken by the violence
of existing for only you

I know I can't be with you
I do what I have to do
I know I can't be with you
I do what I have to do
and I have sense to recognize but
I don't know how to let you go
I don't know how to let you go
I don't know how to let you go

I knew you wanted to tell me
In your voice there was something wrong
But if you would turn your face away from me
You cannot tell me you're so strong
Just let me ask of you one small thing
As we have shared so many tears
With forever our dreams we planned a whole life long
Now are scattered on the wind

Chorus:
In the terms of endearment
In the terms of the life that you love
In the terms of the years that pass you by
In the terms of the reason why

Through the years i've grown to love you
Through your commitment to most would offend
But i stuck by you holding on with my foolish pride
Waiting for you to give in
You never really tried or so it seems
I've had more than myself to blame
I've had enough of trying everything
And this time it is the end...

Repeat chorus

There's no more coming back this way
The path is overgrown and strewn with thorns
They've torn the life blood from your naked eyes
Cast aside to be forlorn

Repeat Chorus

Funny,how it seems that all i've tried to do
Seemed to make no difference to you at all

Morning smiles
like the face
of a newborn child,
innocent, unknowing.

Winter's end
promises
of a long lost friend.
Speaks to me of comfort

but I fear
I have nothing to give.
I have so much
to lose here in this lonely place.
Tangled up in your embrace
there's there's nothing I'd like better than
to fall.

but I fear
I have nothing to give.

Wind in time
rapes the flower
trembling on the vine
and nothing yields to shelter
from above.
They say temptation will destroy our love.
The never ending hunger

but I fear
I have nothing to give
I have so much
to lose here in this lonely place
tangled up in our embrace
there's nothing I'd like better than
to fall

but I fear
I have nothing to give.
I have so much to lose.
I have nothing to give.
We have so much to lose...

Listen as the wind blows
from across the great divide,
Voices trapped in yearning,
memories trapped in time,
The night is my companion
and solitude my guide,
Would I spend forever here
and not be satisfied,

And I would be the one
to hold you down,
kiss you so hard,
I'll take your breath away
and after I'd wipe away the tears,
Just close your eyes dear

Through this world I've stumbled
so many times betrayed,
Trying to find an honest word,
to find the truth enslaved,
Oh you speak to me in riddles and
you speak to me in rhymes
My body aches to breathe your breath,
you words keep me alive,

And I would be the one
to hold you down,
kiss you so hard,
I'll take your breath away
and after I'd wipe away the tears,
Just close your eyes dear

Into this night I wander,
it's morning that I dread,
Another day of knowing of
the path I fear to tread,
Oh into the sea of waking dreams
I follow without pride,
Nothing stands between us here
and I won't be denied,

And I would be the one
to hold you down,
kiss you so hard,
I'll take your breath away
and after I'd wipe away the tears,
Just close your eyes dear

it doesn't mean much
it doesn't mean anything at all
the life I've left behind me
is a cold room
I've crossed the last line
from where I can't return
where every step I took in faith
betrayed me
and led me from my home

and sweet
sweet surrender
is all that I have to give

you take me in
no questions asked
you strip away the ugliness
that surrounds me
are you an angel
am I already that gone
I only hope
that I won't disappoint you
when I'm down here
on my knees

and sweet
sweet
sweet surrender
is all that I have to give

sweet
sweet
sweet surrender
is all that I have to give

and I don't understand
by the touch of your hand
I would be the one to fall

I miss the little things
oh I miss everything

it doesn't mean much
it doesn't mean anything at all
the life I left behind me
is a cold room

Your love
is better than ice cream.
Better than anything else that I've tried
and your love
is better than ice cream
everyone here know how to fight

and it's a long way down
it's a long way down
it's a long way
down to the place where we started from.

Your love
is better than chocolate
better than anything else that I've tried
and oh love is better than chocolate.
Everyone here knows how to cry

and it's a long way down
it's a long way down
it's a long way
down to the place where we started from.

All the fear has left me now
I'm not frightened anymore.
It's my heart that pounds beneath my flesh.
it's my mouth that pushes out this breath

and if I shed a tear I won't cage it.
I won't fear love
and if I feel a rage I won't deny it.
I won't fear love.

Companion to our demons
they will dance and we will play.
With chairs candles and clothes
making darkness in the day.
It will be easy to look in or out
upstream or down
without a thought

and if I shed a tear I won't cage it.
I won't fear love
and if I feel a rage I won't deny it.
I won't fear love.

Peace in the struggle to find peace.
Comfort on the way to comfort

and if I shed a tear I won't cage it.
I won't fear love
and if I feel a rage I won't deny it
I won't fear love.
I won't fear love.
I won't fear love

Spend all your time waiting
for that second chance
for a break that would make it okay
there's always one reason
to feel not good enough
and it's hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction
oh beautiful release
memory seeps from my veins
let me be empty
and weightless and maybe
I'll find some peace tonight

in the arms of an angel
fly away from here
from this dark cold hotel room
and the endlessness that you fear
you are pulled from the wreckage
of your silent reverie
you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort there

so tired of the straight line
and everywhere you turn
there's vultures and thieves at your back
and the storm keeps on twisting
you keep on building the lie
that you make up for all that you lack
it don't make no difference
escaping one last time
it's easier to believe in this sweet madness oh
this glorious sadness that brings me to my knees

in the arms of an angel
fly away from here
from this dark cold hotel room
and the endlessness that you fear
you are pulled from the wreckage
of your silent reverie
you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort there
you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort here

You come out at night
That's when the energy comes
and the dark side's light
and the vampires roam
You strut your astor wear
and your suicide poem
and a cross
from a faith that died
before Jesus came
You're building a mystery

You live in a church
where you sleep
with voodoo dolls
and you won't
Give up the search
for the ghosts in the halls
You wear sandals in the snow
and a smile
that won't wash away
Can you look out the window
without your shadow
getting in the way
Oh you're so beautiful
with an edge and a charm
but so careful
when I'm in your arms
Cause you're working
building a mystery
holding on
and holding it in
Yeah you're working
building a mystery
and choosing so carefully
You woke up screaming aloud
a prayer from your
secret god
You feed off our fears
and hold back your tears oh
Give us a tantrum
and a know it all grin
just when we need one
when the evening's thin
Oh you're a beautiful
a beautiful fucked up man
You're setting up your
razor wire shrine
Cause you're working
building a mystery
holding on
and holding it in
Yeah you're working
building a mystery
and choosing so carefully

Woo you're working
building a mystery
holding on
and holding it in
Yeah you're working
building a mystery
and choosing so carefully
Yeah you're working
building a mystery
holding on
and holding it in
Yeah you're working
building a mystery
and choosing so carefully
The building a mystery

I have a smile
stretched from ear to ear
to see you
walking down the road
we meet at the lights
I stare for a while
the world around us
disappears
it's just you and me
on my island of hope
a breath between us
could be miles
let me surround you
my sea to your shore
let me be the calm you seek
oh and every time
I'm close to you
there's too much I can't say
and you just walk away
and I forgot
to tell you
I love you
and the night's too long
and cold here
without you
I grieve in my condition
for I cannot find the words
to say i need you so

oh and every time
I'm close to you
there's too much I can't say
and you just walk away
and I forgot
to tell you
I love you
and the night's too long
and cold here
without you
I grieve in my condition
