Broken Wings

Song Broken Wings
Artist Dougie MacLean
Album Marching Mystery

Lyrics

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

Pinyin

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
