  • Song lyrics from Beatles Blackbird

    Black birds fly 4833

    Blackbird singing in the dead of night
    Take these broken wings and learn to fly
    All your life
    You were only waiting for this moment to arise

    Black bird singing in the dead of night
    Take these sunken eyes and learn to see
    all your life
    you were only waiting for this moment to be free

    Blackbird fly, Blackbird fly
    Into the light of the dark black night.

    Blackbird fly, Blackbird fly
    Into the light of the dark black night.

    Blackbird singing in the dead of night
    Take these broken wings and learn to fly
    All your life
    You were only waiting for this moment to arise,
    You were only waiting for this moment to arise,
    You were only waiting for this moment to arise

  • Go Plant a Tree by Ella Wheeler Wilcox

    God, what a joy it is to plant a tree,
    And from the sallow earth to watch it rise,
    Lifting its emerald branches to the skies
    In silent adoration; and to see
    Its strength and glory waxing with each spring.
    Yes, 'tis a goodly, and a gladsome thing

    Someone's sitting in the shade today
    because

    someone planted a tree a long time ago.

    Music Notes
    Yet millions of eyes can see 
    Yet why am I so blind 
    When the someone else is me 
    It's unkind, it's unkind
