Broken Wing Lyrics

Broken Wing lyrics

Today I watched a robin

 In our front yard

 I thought by now that they should all be gone.

 With winter 'round the corner

 Snow on its way

 Surely something must be wrong.

 Then in that old oak tree I finally saw her

 Where she sat gazing down upon her mate

 And the song that she was singing

 Seemed to say "I'll be right here"

 "I'd like to go, but your love's made me stay."

 He's got a broken wing

 And that's why he can't fly

 She just can't leave him there

 So she stays by his side

 They're just like you and me

 Oh you should've heard her sing

 They won't give up

 It's just a broken wing.

 I wish we all could learn

 What they seem to have found

 To love our families

 When trouble comes around

 I'll bet that God saw fit

 To show them unto me

 Him on the ground

 Her in that tree.
