[Verse 1]
I wake up sweating
Under the weight of my plans
I once made a bargain
Now I'm seeing it through to the end
What's written on the water
What's written in the wind
These words will last a lifetime
'Cause some things just won't end
[Refrain]
What I am is what I always was
Even pawns can take the queen
What I am is what I always was
Now it's coming back to me
[Verse 2]
I'm back inside the shoebox
And it's only yesterday
The face that's in the mirror
Wants to fall in love again
[Refrain]
What I am (what am I?) is what I always was
Even pawns can take the queen
What I am (what am I?) is what I always was
Now it's coming back to me
[Chorus]
Don't stop now
Can't walk away
The wait is over
Blackbird getaway
Blackbird getaway
Blackbird getaway
Don't stop now
Can't walk away
The wait is over
Blackbird getaway
Blackbird getaway
Blackbird getaway
Blackbird getaway
Blackbird getaway
[Outro]
I once made a bargain
Now I'm seeing it through to the end
