One Wing - Wilco

We once belonged to a bird

Who cast his shadow on this world

You were a blessing and I was a curse

I did my best not to make things worse for you

That isn’t true

I always knew this would be our fate

This is what happens when wings separate

This happens, all dead weight, eventually

We may as well be made of stone

We can’t be flown

One wing will never fly

Neither yours nor mine

I fear we can only wave goodbye

One wing will never ever fly

Neither yours nor mine

One wing will never ever fly, dear

Neither yours nor mine

I fear we can only wave goodbye

One wing will never fly

Neither yours nor mine

I fear we can only wave goodbye
