Sparks, Jordin - A Broken Wing Lyrics
She loved him like he was
The last man on Earth
Gave hime everything she ever had
He'd break her spirit down
Then come lovin' up to her
Give a little, then take it back
She'd tell him about her dreams
He'd just shoot 'em down
Lord he loved to make her cry
"You're crazy for believin'
You'll ever leave the ground"
He said, "Only angels know how to fly"
And with a broken wing
She still sings
She keeps an eye on the sky
With a broken wing
She carries her dreams
Man you ought to see her fly
One Sunday morning
She didn't go to church
He wondered why she didn't leave
He went up to the bedroom
Found a note by the window
With the curtains blowin' in the breeze
And with a broken wing
She still sings
She keeps an eye on the sky
With a broken wing
She carries her dreams
Man you ought to see her fly
With a broken wing
She carries her dreams
Man you ought to see her fly
The last man on Earth
Gave hime everything she ever had
He'd break her spirit down
Then come lovin' up to her
Give a little, then take it back
She'd tell him about her dreams
He'd just shoot 'em down
Lord he loved to make her cry
"You're crazy for believin'
You'll ever leave the ground"
He said, "Only angels know how to fly"
And with a broken wing
She still sings
She keeps an eye on the sky
With a broken wing
She carries her dreams
Man you ought to see her fly
One Sunday morning
She didn't go to church
He wondered why she didn't leave
He went up to the bedroom
Found a note by the window
With the curtains blowin' in the breeze
And with a broken wing
She still sings
She keeps an eye on the sky
With a broken wing
She carries her dreams
Man you ought to see her fly
With a broken wing
She carries her dreams
Man you ought to see her fly

Sparks, Jordin A Broken Wing Comments
I love that song. I loved it when Martina McBride sang it and I love it just as much with Jordan Sparks. She's so talented and still so humble.
For me it was all about how she told the story of the song with her eyes, her entire demeanor. It was mesmerizing and she did do Martina proud!
This Performance by Jordan has never left my mind,, I play Martina's Version all the time,, and always never thought anyone could ever come close to replicate it,, But This Girl,,, You Rocked It, like no other,, God Bless You and Your God Gifted Talent,, Love Yah here in 2019 and always
Wonderfully done Number 1
In my opinion, one of the best performances on American Idol ever.
I never forget when I heard that last long note in the end for the first time. It's so good! 17 years old!
I remember this like it was yesterday. Goosebumps still!
I thought her name was Georgine Starks
sourcheesepringles lol
That was a FANTASTIC performance. Did she eventually win?
Robert Zeurunkl yes she won!
I'm surprised that Simon Cowell said some positive comments to Jordin Sparks and believe me she did won
Still an extraordinarily beautiful performance by a beautiful girl -
Its whatever
The only time I watched this show asides from the funny auditions. What a voice, what a star.
Simon was right, he said she could have won and she did
i think shayla fearing did better on the voice
I think country is her genre. She she need to do songs like this.
One of my favorite performances from all Idol seasons. I knew she would win too after this performance. When Melinda DooLittle got eliminated, I knew it was Jordin's season.
Blake in the final was such a joke. Lol.
love jordin sparks!
Tristan Mcintosh tried to sing this on AI this season. lol try again! didnt even come close to Jordin
The 3 people that disliked this are probably just jealous
Idol duet brought me here in 2016.
Simon predict Jordin can win and she did.
Can u guys please check out my cover? Thanks
I'll never foget this performance. This was when I knew she was gonna win!!!
I always knew right from the beginning. She has the total package. Melinda and Lakeisha are superb vocalist. But they dont have that overall package (looks, personality, etc). Jordin was just perfect and it helps her being young and having a big teenage follower
My favorite winner to ever come off the show in all their fifteen years. God bless her.
She is beautiful,voice is amazing,she sings like she is not tired at all,perfect control!
Such control of such an awesome voice.
Her voice is just so gorgues
Keneshia I saw that sign and I thinks it's ironic too. Wow Sparkled, and years after she stated in it!!!
SANG IT THEN, JORDIN.... JUST SING IT...AWESOME PERFORMANCE...
love that girl!
GOD. GOOSEBUMPS.
Lol she's so cute
Jordin Sparks sang one of my favorite songs, On A Broken Wing, and she nailed it. Beautiful voice and delivery.
Carlos Chenault isn’t the song called “A Broken Wing”...
Beautiful performance. :)
She's so pretty D:
jordin u our amazing love her
Shes already famouse1
This is a hard song.... She killed it...
lord that kid can sing good job jordin!!!
Did ya'll see the sign at the end where someone had "Jordin Sparkle?" It so ironic that they had that sign and she was just in the movie Sparkle. Weird, huh?
@RAGS123abc
SPARKLE!!!!!! <3
@RAGS123abc she might be better than Martina!
i think it would be awesome if carrie underwood came and was a mentor during country week on idol one of these years - so many of them use her songs, and she has so many good ones...
RAGS123abc she did this year!
Awesome performance - thanks for posting.
i agree!
THIS WAS PERFECTION!
