blackbirds

we have been broken, warm hearts are frozen, with every teardrop there's a song, we are believers, when the world deceives us, born to rise above the cries, after all i know that i must go, to the other side where the ghostwinds blow, once a dreaming child now i'm a flaming man, burning in the shadows, with my rock and roll band, aah yeah, ooh, just another old monday, coming down that same long highway, me and the boys out forcing the storm again yeah, it's just the lifestyle that we cherish, so we can tower and embellish, blackbirds flying on our wings of rock, i've seen the generations turning, so many bridges they were burning, all the scars and all the lies, oh, me and the blackbirds, carry heavy load, grinding memories of the secrets never told, we shook the grounds of our yesterdays, pioneers of a golden age, aah the blackbirds are coming, still going strong, yeah, from tokyo to new york city, they dream of fame and fortune looking pretty, desperate minds that let the heart go blind, on the boulevard of broken dreams, i'm a stranger running in between, from the clouds that rain us down, there's no escape from the undertow, but i won't go down with my head hung low, will never let the spirit die, music is my revelation, i wanna be your new sensation, let the song be you and i, blackbirds rising in the dead of night, we come alive with the neon lights, but me and the boys we can not stay, restless hearts going our own way, all the stories i have told from the life that i unfold, so many places i have been, but sill a stranger deep within, take the sun and shine on everyone, be the light and guide inside the darkest hearts of night, and the wheel it keeps on spinning, from the end to beginning, life and death will never die, 50 miles away from london town, tower bridge and the royal crown, one more show and we're off to paris, blackbirds flying till the final vanish, when this movie is running out of breath, and there's no cinema playing in my head, you will remember my rock and roll, a blockbuster haunting in your soul, aah. blackbird is coming sill playing on, yeah, blackbirds are calling, we're still laying strong
