YOUR FACE I DID SEE

Blackbird, I saw your face today
What song do you bring my way
Is it a story of these times
Or is it the future that will not last

You speak of the war of many
That steal the heart from the ones
What have they become?

You are two, 
You are three,
You are four...

Your song I have heard before
Jutting around your eyes spot the ground
Upon it you see, the carcass of many

You pick their bones so dry
No death in your eyes
Only a passing of time

Times with many lies
Your message I do see
It penetrates the very soul of me

Forever you will be in the wind
And upon the earth of many
Bringing messages for all to see...

When in the silence of the wind
The message of the creator you do send...

I saw your face today...

Ah Ho!
