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 never leave the ground He said only angels know how to fly
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 ought to see her fly
One Sunday morning 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
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 ought to see her fly
With a broken wing she carries her dreams Man you ought to see her fly
