lyrics

Sometimes we want the world
But the world only wants one of us
And we're careless with our hearts

Sometimes we want to care
Insofar as we find somebody to love
We're luckless with our hearts

Sometimes we want it back
Or to the back of us
You've a blackbird in your mouth
A blackbird in your mouth
How loveily she sings
