Flying so high, trying to remember
How many cigarettes did I bring along
When I get down, I'll jump in a taxi cab
Riding through London town, to cry you a song

It's been a long time, still shaking my wings
Well, I'm a black bird, I got changes to ring

Closing my dream inside this paperbag
Thought I saw angels, but I could have been wrong
Search in my case; can't find what they're looking for
Waving me through, to cry you a song

Lights in the street, peeping through curtains drawn
Rattling of safety chain taking too long
The smile in your eyes was never so sweet before
Came down from the skies to cry you a song
