A tall tree turn and face the west Oh we're running with the wind A high clifftop we're waiting with the rest For this journey to begin But these broken wings won't fly These broken wings won't fly These broken wings won't fly at all And Oh how we laugh but maybe we should crawl And ask to be excused We shout loudly, have answers to it all Oh but we have been refused But these broken wings won't fly These broken wings won't fly These broken wings won't fly at all Girl child You're dancing with the stream Growing with the silver trees Your young questions You ask me what it means Oh but I am not at ease But these broken wings won't fly These broken wings won't fly These broken wings won't fly at all
