Broken Wings Lyrics
Why we can't just hold on
To each other's hands
This time will be the last
I fear unless I make it all so clear
I need you so
Take these broken wings
And learn to fly again
And learn to live so free
And when we hear the voices sing
The book of love will open up
And let us in
Baby I think tonight
We can take what was wrong
And make it right
I need you so
Baby it's all I know
That you're half of the flesh
And blood makes me whole
I need you so
This is a great song of a broken relationship. He realizes to late that its falling apart and he knows it over unless he steps up and tells her how much he truly loves her and cant do anything without her. One of the best songs from the 80's
it's a song of inspiration that urges the listener to heal his wounds live life again and learn to enjoy. LifeUrLife, he's asking you to LifeUrLife.
could someone get me the tab or chords for this song please. i just love it and cant figure it out
This song is one of my favorites. You just can listen to it over and over again and you never get bored. I think the song is about a failed relationship and now he is tryin to convince her to take him back and to make a new start. I don't now whether the girl gives him a second chance but I actually would if somebody sang this song to me. I also like the video pretty much, sometimes even more than the song. 80s rock!!!
Awesome, powerful song about a failing relationship, and the desire of one partner to try and save it by professing how strongly he feels about her, and hoping they can commit to fix the mistakes made that night. Not sure if he is admitting to having broken her wings, and now encourages her, that he will give her the freedom to fly and live her life instead of being stifled. I just love this song.
Part of the songs' chorus is a reference to The Beatles song 'Blackbird'. The line is "Take these broken wings and learn to fly" which can be heard in both songs.
@funkgeom Because the image of broken wings is a very powerful one of something that lost it's cause, so it's used a lot in literature and music.

But the Blackbird is one of the most well known. That's the power of The Beatles.

incredible song,one of the most truthful in your face honest songs about loves downfall.
i read somewhere once this song was about the singer's battle with cocaine addiction, eitherway it is clear the singer is going through some sort of inner turmoil and is in a very bad place 'broken wings' but realises that through this woman[or even man] in his life things can get better and there is hope 'learn to fly again' with the help of his lover.
Richard Page of Mr. Mister didn’t think Broken Wings would ever be a hit. They thought the song was too long. And it was too personal. You see, Broken Wings is about the band’s recovery from cocaine addiction as they learned to “fly again.” Many musicians at the time considered cocaine to be a harmless creative muse. Even Sigmund Freud used it. But cocaine derailed Richard Page and the rest of the band for several years. During their time of recovery, Page had a bass line he was working on. Page’s cousin and collaborator, John Lang, was reading the book Broken Wings by Kahlil Gibran, author of The Prophet. John was fused was inspired by the tune and brought in ideas from the book. And the song took flight.
