Well, I'll take a black bird Up to the sky Over the moon Long after midnight To break me out And drag me down And take all my pieces Over this town There ain't no grave There ain't no grave There ain't no grave Well, I'll become the river and I'll wash you all away Oh black bird, oh black bird Oh, sing me a song You make me go skyward It won't be long To break me off And drag me down And take all my pieces Over this town There ain't no grave There ain't no grave There ain't no grave Well, I'll become the river and I'll wash you all away Nobody knows where we go when we die But I can hear the answer on the wind What a broken man you became From the innocent child to where you begin Nobody knows where we go when we die But I can hear the answer on the wind What a broken man you became From the innocent child to where you begin There ain't no grave There ain't no grave There ain't no grave Well I'll become the river and I'll wash you Ain't no grave There ain't no grave There ain't no grave Well I'll become the river and I'll wash you all a I'll become the river and I'll wash you all a I'll become the river and I'll wash you all away
