Blackbird singing in Basin Street
Blackbird singing in Basin Street.
Evening kisses the day
Lamp outside is the setting sun
Light steals the night away
All around our little house
That means so much to me
Whispers of a misty evening
Romancing the gentle tree
Let us celebrate each moment.
As stars multiply in the sky
And evening melts into timelessness
There is no such word as why
Now I murmur sweet nothingness.
As snowdrops lay in flower
For all I have, I give to you
From now until my final hour.
