Torn up and tired, no light to inspire
But I know I'm gonna get back to the air
It's a matter of time, a matter of love over despair
So when I look up and the sky is full of clouds
I can always find one beautiful thing
That bird has my wings
That bird has my wings
Please don't harm that pretty little bird
That bird has my wings
Wandering around, I'm so heavy on the ground
But one day I'm gonna break these bonds and fly
It's a matter of time, a matter of love we can't deny
When I can barely raise my head I will remember
That the darkness holds beautiful things
That bird has my wings
That bird has my wings
Please don't harm that pretty little bird
That bird has my wings
That bird has my wings
That bird has my wings
Please don't harm that pretty little bird
That bird has my wings
Has my wings while I mend
Holds my wings just like a friend
Knows my wings and gonna bend, but they will never break
I can't pretend to have a clue about the end
But I choose to trust and try everyday
It's a matter of time until love will light my way
When I can barely breathe, I will remember
To raise my little voice up and sing
That bird has my wings
That bird has my wings
Please don't harm that pretty little bird
That bird has my wings
That bird has my wings
That bird has my wings
Please don't harm that pretty little bird
That bird has my wings
