"One Wing" lyrics - WILCO

We once belonged to a bird
We cast a 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 to 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 ever fly, dear
Neither yours nor mine
I fear we can only wave goodbye.
