| Lyrics |
Eyes to take you dancingmouth to leave your wife
Legs to run away withand you wonder why?
Heart that makes you bypassevery other girl
Smile that keeps you grinningat the madness of this world
But like the blackbird on the wire
I will not take prey on you
You wouldn't want me to
For I am too soft for such a thing
And like the blackbird on the wire
I just watch you by
The tears I knew I'd cry
Fall unnoticed down below
Front to make you happyback to make you weep
Lips to keep you kissingwhilst everyone's asleep
Tears to break a backbonelaughs to win a war
And people come and ask mewhat I love you for
But like the blackbird on the wire
I will not take prey on you
You wouldn't want me to
For I am too soft for such a thing
And like the blackbird on the wire
I just watch you by
The tears I knew I'd cry
Fall unnoticed down below
And with a tongue built from quicksilverand a character of steel
They actually come and ask me
How I feel
But like the blackbird on the wire
I will not take prey on you
You wouldn't want me to
For I am too soft for such a thing
And like the blackbird on the wire
I just watch you by
The tears I knew I'd cry
Fall unnoticed down below
