Walking by the river as evening fell
I thought I heard you call my name but there was no one
I've been waiting for a sign from you but all I saw
Was a flock of blackbirds fly into the setting sun
Over fences, over clotheslines
Over rooftops and alleyways, they make their way
Fly away, blackbird
Fly away, home, blackbird
If you make it across the river
Let me know somehow the way
That I might meet you there
Wherever you are, someday
Did you ever hesitate
There was something you wanted to say
But the timing wasn't right and the moment passed
Well, maybe some things are unfinished, and never will be
Let me say it now, I love you, let your soul go free
Over fences, over clotheslines
Over rooftops, and alleyways, make your way
Fly away, blackbird
Fly away, home, blackbird
