about

A poem, written by David's friend in Sweden, becomes a man's song of gratitude for the mesmerising, restorative song of the blackbird.

lyrics

there's a song to carry me
In the dead of the evening
a song gives me wings to carry on
a message to bring along
in the dead of the night now
a tune and trust is word to come through

my blackbird in the tree
my blackbird sings solely to me
telling tales and memories
my blackbird in the tree
my blackbird sings solely for me
never fails

world is turning and we are
a small revolution
from now till then no conclusion

my blackbird in the tree...

and sure as the sunrise
the night sky hails the day as it’s dawning
a song for the free
