Song | Broken Wings |
Artist | Dougie MacLean |
Album | Marching Mystery |
A tall tree, turn and face the west | |
O we’re running with the wind | |
A high cliff-top, we’re waiting with the rest | |
For this journey to begin | |
But these broken wings won’t fly | |
These broken wings won’t fly at all | |
And how we laugh, but maybe we should crawl | |
And ask to be excused | |
We shout loudly, have answers to it all | |
O but we have been refused | |
Girl child, you’re dancing with the stream | |
Growing with the silver trees | |
Your young questions, you ask me what it means | |
O but I am not at ease |
A tall tree, turn and face the west | |
O 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 at all | |
And how we laugh, but maybe we should crawl | |
And ask to be excused | |
We shout loudly, have answers to it all | |
O but we have been refused | |
Girl child, you' re dancing with the stream | |
Growing with the silver trees | |
Your young questions, you ask me what it means | |
O but I am not at ease |
