Lyrics
Blackbird, blackbird, please fly away
Expressing a desire for the blackbird to leave or go away.
You've been flying overhead
Acknowledging the blackbird's presence flying above.
You've been darkening my day
Attributing a negative impact on the speaker's day to the blackbird.
And now you've got your shiny gold ring
Referencing the blackbird's commitment or relationship, symbolized by a shiny gold ring.
But I feel you watching my moves
Feeling observed by the blackbird despite its commitment.
I see you waiting in the wings
Perceiving the blackbird waiting in the wings, possibly suggesting hidden intentions.
And when I leave this town
Anticipating a departure from the current location.
And when you know I'm not around
Highlighting the blackbird's awareness of the speaker's absence.
I feel it in my every bone
Sensing a deep emotional impact in the speaker's bones when away.
You are trying to get him all alone
Suspecting the blackbird's attempt to isolate the speaker's romantic interest.
Oh blackbird, blackbird, this town is small
Describing the town as small, possibly emphasizing the proximity and limited space.
I see your feathers dropping like hints
Noticing signs or clues (feathers) of the blackbird's disapproval or interference.
You don't want me around at all
Interpreting the blackbird's preference for the speaker to be absent.
And when I go out with my friends for a flare
Referring to a social event with friends and the blackbird's disapproving hints.
I see your beady black eyes
Observing the blackbird's critical gaze with small, dark eyes.
I feel your uninviting stare
Feeling the negative and unwelcoming attention from the blackbird.
Stare
Repetition of "Stare" possibly emphasizing the intensity of the blackbird's gaze.
Stare
-Stare
-And when I leave this town
Reiteration of the impact on the speaker when leaving town.
And when you know I'm not around
Emphasizing the blackbird's awareness during the speaker's absence.
I feel it in my every bone
Repeating the deep emotional impact felt in the speaker's bones.
You are trying to get him all alone
Reiterating the blackbird's perceived attempt to isolate the romantic interest.
Oh but blackbird, blackbird, my love is true
Asserting the speaker's genuine and true love amidst challenges.
And all the stars are aligned
Highlighting a positive moment with aligned stars and a captivating view.
It's such a captivating view
Expressing a positive perspective on love despite challenges.
Blackbird, blackbird, please go away
Repeating the plea for the blackbird to go away.
I'm not gonna waste my time worrying what you're gonna say
Declaring a decision not to be concerned about the blackbird's opinions.
