That's a touching song you sing 'Bout the bird with a broken wing And how the young boy takes her in Until she's well enough to fly again And when it's time for her to go You hare the you boy say Chorus: Don't fly away pretty bird and leave me crying over you Leaving me wondering why Why you could never understand The way I love you like I do But i cannot fly and I wish you'd stay That's a touching irony In that song for you and me 'Case I love you totally But you keep saying that you've gotta be free And now it's time for you to go Listen to me say Repeat Chorus If I Could only change your wild and wandering ways But I've done everything I can So one last time now hear me say Repeat Chorus
