Lyrics
Well, I'm not so well acquainted
With the topography of your mind
I need a detailed description
A representation of some kind
And I lost my balance
And I toppled into a shallow pool
Marched in a torchlight parade
Hair styled into a Tony Curtis
The blackbird sang the sun to bed
And the blackbird sang the sun to bed
And the blackbird sang the sun to bed
The bonds of heaven are slipped, dissolved, and loosed
Like schoolboys
They had swarmed around a single able-seaman
He slinks like a cat in the night
His belly dragging to the ground
Leaving the anchorage in haste
He detached the carriage from a moving train
The cool silky stuff of his shirt
Slipping over her skin
And the blackbird sang the sun to bed
And the blackbird sang the sun to bed
And the blackbird sang the sun to bed
The bonds of heaven are slipped, dissolved, and loosed
Slipped, dissolved, and loosed
Slipped, dissolved, and loosed
The blackbird sang the sun to bed
And the blackbird sang the sun to bed
And the blackbird sang the sun to bed
The bonds of heaven are slipped, dissolved, and loosed (ooh)
Slipped, dissolved, and loosed (ooh)
Slipped, dissolved, and loosed (ooh)
