[Verse 1]
Blackbird in the morning sun
Casts a shadow on the whites of her eyes
She's a suspect on the run
Looking for an alibi
[Chorus]
It's too late, it's too late
She's a runaway
It's too late, it's too late
She's a runaway
[Verse 2]
Closer to the heart of time
Her present becomes her past
Counts the knots in the ties that bind
Until the first it becomes the last
[Chorus]
It's too late, it's too late
She's a runaway
It's too late, it's too late
She's a runaway
[Bridge]
She is free
Yeah she is free
No more names, no more labels
Can be hung
She is free
Yeah she is free
No more pain, no more sorrows
To be sung
Ah, she's a runaway
[Instrumental]
[Verse 3]
The journey has only just begun
Dreams, they cling to her bones
Her hair flows in the arc of the sun
She's so far away from home
[Chorus]
It's too late, it's too late
She's a runaway
It's too late, it's too late
She's a runaway
It's too late, it's too late
She's a runaway
It's too late
It's too late
She's a runaway

James Skelly:
It’s a proper band effort really, that one. I wrote the verse, it’s like when you leave school and you’re free, but you’re trying to...
