The Gray Havens - Blackbird

Copied!

{Verse 1: David Radford}
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

{Verse 2: David Radford & Licia Radford}
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

{Chorus: David Radford & Licia Radford}
Blackbird fly, blackbird fly
Into the light of the dark black night

{Instrumental Break}

{Chorus: David Radford & Licia Radford}
Blackbird fly, blackbird fly
Into the light of the dark black night

{Verse 3: David Radford & Licia Radford}
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
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
You were only waiting for this moment to arise

edit bio

The Gray Havens is a husband/wife duo made up of Dave and Licia Radford. The band’s name itself is a reference to the mythical seaport found in J. R. R. Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings series where ships sail away to a far country. Since their beginning in 2013, The Gray Havens' projects have been hailed as “an imaginative treatment of faith…[having] a visionary quality that’s both playful and enraptured.” They have a knack for creating a listening experience similar to paging through your favorite book, with richly textured compositions and multi-layered lyrics.
