I am the king of the sparrows
Of the sparrows
With a broken wing

Oh, and I fell in love with a strong wind
With a strong wind
And it carried me away

Oh, oh, oh haven't you heard
All of your songs
They're only songs

I am the song of the blackbird
Of the blackbird
With the loudest voice

I wake the sun in the morning
In the morning
But the darkness comes

Oh, haven't you heard
All of your songs
They're only songs

Oh my wandering bird
Oh my wandering bird
Oh my wandering bird
You climb up a mountain to swallow the ocean
And you drink to the bottom, oh still your thirst
And you're quoting the Bible as you pray to the Devil
While most of the world is asleep

Haven't you heard
All of your songs
They're only songs
And you're just

Oh my wandering bird
Oh my wandering bird
Oh my wandering bird
Oh my wandering bird

Oh my wandering bird
Oh my wandering bird
Oh my wandering bird
