Broken Wings Heal

BROKEN WINGS HEAL – c 2015 Boo Ray/Steve Ferrone


cold steel and concrete 
fluorescent sunrise
soon you'll forget me 
i'll be the days that go by
dreaming endlessly dreaming 
the coast line is gleaming 
sun sets down low in the sky

then i will 
be long gone
follow the sun 
all the way home
a whisper of freedom 
blows in the wind
broken wings heal

and i'll fly again 
i fly again 
i'll fly again

warm summer sunlight 
pours through the window
some times i get low 
can't see your face anymore
it's so long 
since i got a letter 
one day i'll be better
one day i'll walk out that door

then i will be long gone
follow the sun all the way home
a whisper of freedom 
blows in the wind
broken wings heal

and i'll fly again 
i fly again 
i'll fly again

they watched me unravel 
come completely undone
they stared while i burned up in flames 
underneath a red sun
i cried out for mercy 
only angels heard 
found me there in the ashes 
they call me firebird 

and i'll fly again 
i fly again 
i'll fly again 
i'll fly again
