You're just six feet away
But I'm an inch from dying
I'll sleep dreamless today
When you call me crying
I'm just six feet away
But I'm an inch from dying
Blackbird keep me awake
In the pillared darkness
And slowly all will fall down and I'm
Just seeing the last of the western sun
So come in simply, as you and I
Just feel in a touch, when first in love
You're just six feet away
But I'm an inch from dying
I'll sleep dreamless today
When you call me crying
I'm just six feet away
But I'm an inch from dying
Blackbird keep me awake
In the pillared darkness
