A Broken Wing

She Loved him like he was 
The last man on earth 
Gave him everything she ever had 
And he'd break her spirit down 
Then come lovin' up on her 
Give a little, then take it back 

She'd tell him 'bout her dreams 
He'd just shoot 'em down 
Lord, he loved to make her cry 
"You're crazy for believin' 
You'll never 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 

[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 

With a broken wing 
She carries her dreams 
Man you oughta see her fly
