A Broken Wing

Written by Holli Marshall

By Martina Mcbride

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'd ever 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 oughta 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 oughta see her fly

With a broken wing
She carries her dreams
Man you oughta see her fly
