Subject: Lyr Add: BORN WITH A BROKEN WING (Katy Moffatt)
Katy Moffatt has a great song called BORN WITH A BROKEN WING on her Greatest Show on Earth album, easy chords and like all her songs, a joy to sing...
See the snow geese up on high flying north in perfect line Hear the cry of lonliniess of the one they left behind He is calling for his brothers as they fly north in the spring He is bound on earth to sing for he was born with a broken wing
Chorus: He was born with a broken wing but he'll fly thru his dreams He'll close his eyes and sing, tho he was born w/a broken wing
Some are born weak in the heart, some weak in the mind Some they have no legs to walk, but all are born to fly They ask not for sympathy, just the freedom of their dreams The lame shall walk, the blind shall see, for they were born with broken wings
Chorus (They were born....)
Like that lonely snow goose, I have learned to make my way I've survived the seasons, I'm on my own today We may live close to the ground but songs are made of dreams Just listen to the singer sing, for she was born with a broken wing
