[originally performed by Mr. Mister]

Baby don't understand

Why we can't just hold on
To each other's hands


This time might be the last
I fear unless I make it all too 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
Take these broken wings


Baby I think tonight
We can take what was wrong
To make it right


Baby it's all I know
That you're half of the flesh

And blood makes me whole
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

Take these broken wings
You got to learn to fly
And learn to live so free

And when we hear the voices sing

Let us in

Let us in

Baby it's all I know

That you're half of the flesh
And blood makes me whole
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah 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
Take these broken wings

You got to learn to fly
And learn to live so free
And when we hear the voices sing

The book of love will open up
And let us in
