Broken Wings

Well, I can reach out and touch an angel's wings

But they will not lift me up

From this broken bed of fever dreaming

I cannot fly far enough

And I can reach out and touch my lover's heat

But it will not warm me up

I just lay there in his arms and weeping

'Cause we cannot fly far enough

No, we cannot fly far enough

Broken wings don't fly beyond these sheets

But I, I would do anything to try

Not to feed this cruel desire

That I'm feeling burning in me

Hands of angels tear at me

My old wounds never heal

And I retrace each step I've taken

But still I always feel

That I can reach out to touch an angel's wings

But they will not lift us up

From this broken bed of fever dreaming

We cannot fly far enough

No, we cannot fly far enough

Broken wings don't fly beyond these sheets

But I, I would do anything to try

Not to feed this cruel desire

Broken wings don't fly beyond these sheets

But I, I would do anything to try

Not to feed this cruel desire

That I'm feeling burning in me
