She loved him like he was

The last man on earth

Gave him everything she ever had

He'd break her spirit down

Then come lovin' up on her

Give a little, then take it back



She'd tell him about her dreams

He'd just shoot 'em down

Lord he loved to make her cry

"You're crazy for believin'

You'll ever leave the ground"

He said "only angels know how to fly"



CHORUS:

And with a broken wing

she still sings

She keeps an eye on the sky

With a broken wing

She carries her dreams

Man you oughta see her fly



One Sunday mornin'

She didn't go to church

He wondered why she didn't leave

He went up to the bedroom

Found a note by the window

With the curtains blowin' in the breeze



REPEAT CHORUS



With a broken wing

She carries her dreams

Man you oughta see her fly
