black bird came and sung his song
three meters and three measures long
sun & rain falling down upon the ground
what a sweet melody for some song
come again - what a feeling all around
come again - flying over the center of town
come again - i'm only what i think i am
come again - w/ my two feet here i stand
my two feet started walking down the lane
when i heard someone young call my name
but i didn't care to see if i saw anyone at all
lookin' for a black bird in an evergreen pretty tall
come again - what a feeling all around
come again - flying over the center of town
come again - i'm only what i think i am
come again - w/ my two feet here i stand
little charlie densen had a rabbit brown & white
he'd rather care for the rabbit than learn to fight
one ash wednesday he found a hundred dollar bill
and learned it's better to find fortune than it is steal
come again - what a feeling all around
come again - flying over the center of town
come again - i'm only what i think i am
come again - w/ my two feet here i stand
what is it you want from life you say you know
what is it you borrowed or you know you stole
i stole words from books & movies - and attitude
from a blackbird in an evergreen singing songs
come again - what a feeling all around
come again - flying over the center of town
come again - i'm only what i think i am
come again - two feet i stand w/ a mission -
with a mission to fly away above the town
with a mission i need to spread all around
with a mission for you to know my name
with a mission in falling sun or gentle rain
come again - in falling sun or gentle rain
come again - in gentle sun or falling rain
come again - in wintry sun or pounding rain
come again - in summer sun with no rain
