Today I watched a robin |
|
In our front yard |
|
I thought by now that they schold all be gone. |
|
With winter `round the corner |
|
Snow on it`s way |
|
Surely their must be something 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. |
|
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 |
|
We won`t give up |
|
They won`t give up |
|
It`s just a broken wing. |
|
Ooooooooh... |
|
It`s just a broken wing. |
