She started off to wander
As she came upon a hollow
Drifted black into a pool
With tiny little worms
Dream-bird came to wake her singing
Blackbird come for supper
Mother can't remember
How she came about this place
She started off to wander
As she came upon the sorrow
Of another day without a clue
And where she wants to be
Dream-bird came to wake her singing
Blackbird come for supper
Mother can't remember
How she came along to me
And the lights come down on a perfect world
As we watch it slip away
And the long lost years of a broken girl
That could never love again
It'd the wasted time and empty tears
Like flowers in the rain
And it's not the words you want to hear
That could ever make you stay
She started off to wander
As you break me apart
Never says a word
Never had a heart
Blackbird wants to take her
Countless thoughts of pleasure
Mother won't remember
How you came along to be
Dead bird gazing out at the cold dark moon
The sky, the stars, and the sounds of gloom
Blackbird come for supper
I can't live forever
Mother shuts the window
Just to dream another dream
