Letra de
Blackbird

Blackbird fue parcialmente inspirada por el movimiento de derechos civiles en EE. UU. y la desigualdad racial. McCartney quería escribir una canción que pudiera ser un himno de esperanza para la comunidad negra.

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

Black-bird, fly
Black-bird, fly
Into the light of the dark black night


Black-bird, fly
Black-bird, fly
Into the light of the 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
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
