It's been a hard day's night and I've been working like a dog It's been a hard day's night, I should be sleeping like a log But when I get home to you I find the things that you do Will make me feel alright You know I work all day to get you money to buy you things And it's worth it just to here you say you're gonna give me everything So why on earth should I moan 'cause when I get you alone You know I feel okay {Refrain} When I'm home everything seems to be right When I'm home feeling you holding me tight, tight, yeah So why on earth should I moan, 'cause when I get you alone You know I feel okay You know I feel alright You know I feel alright

When I was young
I never needed anyone
And makin' love was just for fun
Those days are gone

Livin' alone
I think of all the friends I've known
But when I dial the telephone
Nobody's home

All by myself, don't wanna be,
All by myself anymore
All by myself, don't wanna live,
All by myself anymore

Hard to be sure
Some times I feel so insecure
And love so distant and obscure
Remains the cure

- interlude -

All by myself, don't wanna be,
All by myself anymore
All by myself, don't wanna live,
All by myself anymore

All by myself, don't wanna be,
All by myself anymore
All by myself, don't wanna live,
All by myself anymore, anymore

I give her all my love That's all I do And if you saw my love You'd love her too I love her She gives me everything And tenderly The kiss my lover brings She brings to me And I love her A love like ours Could never die As long as I Have you near me Bright are the stars that shine Dark is the sky I know this love of mine Will never die And I love her Bright are the stars that shine Dark is the sky I know this love of mine Will never die And I love her

In every heart there is a room A sanctuary safe and strong To heal the wounds from lovers past Until a new one comes along I spoke to you in cautious tones You answered me with no pretense And still I feel I said too much my silence is my self defense And everytime I've held a rose It seems I've only felt the thorns And so it goes, and so it goes And so will you soon I suppose But if my silence made you leave Then that would be my worst mistake So I will share this room with you And you can have this heart to break And this is why my eyes are closed It's just as well all I've seen And so it goes, and so it goes And you're the only one who knows So I would choose to be with you That's fine choice was mine to make But you can make decisions too And you can have this heart to break And so it goes, and so it goes And you're the only one who knows

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. Blackbird 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.
