Paul McCartney - Jenny Wren





Like so many girls, Jenny Wren could sing
But a broken heart took her song away

Like the other girls, Jenny Wren took wing
She could see the world and its foolish ways

How we spend our days casting love aside
Losing sight of life day by day

She saw poverty breaking up her home
Wounded warriors took her song away

(solo) verse, chorus

But the day will come, Jenny Wren will sing
When this broken world mends its foolish ways

Then we spend our days catching up on life
All be-cause of you, Jenny Wren

You saw who we are, Jenny Wren.



Nota: É a segunda parte do velho Blackbird com a parte solo feita num instrumento de sopro arménio, de nome duduk. Jenny Wren é uma rapariga sem infância e deficiente, personagem do livro 'Our Mutual Friend' de Charles Dickens, que trabalha e canta enquanto faz bonecas e roupa para elas.
