Lyrics

Long ago I was flying in the air Looking at the sea below, I was hunting krill Diving down, in a flash, I'd scoop 'em up Thrashing in my mandible, it was such a thrill Me, my friends, we were killers Now I'm just a bird with a broken wing And I still have a song to sing Turning night to day, warbling clouds away I'm just a bird with a broken wing And this beautiful song to sing Don't feel sad for me, I'm right where I wanna be The stupid cat, always sneaking up on me Thinking I would be his meal, 'til I slipped up and away Singing out The melody came endlessly High or low, I felt so free I had something to say But he'll never catch my melody Though I'm just a bird with a broken wing And I still have a song to sing Turning night to day, warbling clouds away I'm just a bird with a broken wing And the beautiful song to sing Don't feel sad for me I'm right where I wanna be Nothing matters in the world and everyone is free But I'll belong to you if you believe in me Nothing matters in the world and everyone is free But I'll belong to you if you believe in me I'm just a bird with a broken wing And I still have a song to sing Turning night to day, warbling clouds away I'm just a bird with a broken wing And the beautiful song to sing Don't feel sad for me, I'm right where I wanna be
