Rush of Blood Lyrics[Verse 1]
This quiet resignation
In the corners of your eyes
Bleek and brutal sadness
Nobody could contrive
No ocean deep discussion
Could unravel or unwind
There’s freedom to your movement
When the music hits its stride
So delicately cadenced
Self-evidently right
No cluster of sweet melody
Could dampen or outshine
[Chorus]
In a rush of blood
I threw it all away
Oh Lord
What was I thinking of that day
[Verse 2]
Blackbird at your window
Singing blue unto the day
By the time you turned to listen
Sang and up and flew away
Love song of devotion
So ever delicately played
Could pretend to replace
[Chorus]
In a rush of blood
I threw it all away
Oh Lord
What was I thinking of that day
[Outro]
Lingered long upon my lips
Then up and flew away (Blackbird)
Singing up a blue, blue day (Blue day)
She up and flew away (Blackbird)
Singing up a blue, blue day
