She sat across the table
An ocean between
Ignoring the sound pouring from my heart like a broke down symphony
Her stare cut through the silence
Her death black colored iris
Her hair set wildfire to my misery
A once broken wing shall regain the sky
In a wild blue yonder burning above the pines
I might be missing quite a few feathers
But I'm freer now than I've ever been
I hit the road running
There's no turning back
With a redlined screaming engine in a two bit Cadillac
Just across the county line
At the old covered bridge
I stopped and dropped her memory like an anchor in the cold muddy depth
A once broken wing shall regain the sky
In a wild blue yonder burning above the pines
I might be missing quite a few feathers
But I'm freer now than I've ever been
Into the world I go to lose my mind and find my soul
Into the world I go
Folks back home
Wonder what became of me
Heard they took out a missing person's ad and obituary
I'm heading west
Chasing the sun
The road behind me like the ribbon of a cigarette
It's here then it's gone
A once broken wing shall regain the sky
In a wild blue yonder burning above the pines
I might be missing quite a few feathers
A once broken wing shall regain the sky
In a wild blue yonder burning above the pines
I might be missing quite a few feathers
But I'm freer now than I've ever been
Into the world I go to lose my mind and find my soul
Into the world I go
Into the world I go
