Broken Wings
Naturally 7 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Why we can't just hold on
To each other's hands
This time will be the last
I fear unless I make it all so clear
I need you so
Take these broken wings
And learn to live so free
And when we hear the voices sing
The book of love will open up
And let us in
Baby I think tonight
We can take what was wrong
And make it right
I need you so
Baby it's all I know
That you're half of the flesh
And blood makes me whole
I need you so
In Naturally 7's song "Broken Wings", the lyrics describe the desperation and longing of a person who is afraid of losing their significant other. The singer expresses confusion about the reason for the relationship's instability and wishes they could simply hold on to each other's hands. The repetition of "I need you so" throughout the song emphasizes the singer's dependence on their partner for their own happiness and completion.
The chorus of the song, "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", offers a message of hope and encouragement. The "broken wings" represent the challenges and struggles in the relationship, and the singer urges their partner to overcome them and learn how to fly again. The "book of love" opening up signifies a new beginning and the possibility of a stronger connection between the two.

Baby I don't understand
I am confused and uncertain
Why we can't just hold on
together we should stand strong
To each other's hands
let us join hands
This time will be the last
things might end if we don't act fast
I fear unless I make it all so clear
if I don't express myself, it'll be hard, I fear
I need you so
I can't live without you, don't you know?
Take these broken wings
accept these flaws of mine
And learn to fly again
together, let us strive to reach new heights
And learn to live so free
together, let us break free
And when we hear the voices sing
we'll know it's our time to spread our wings
The book of love will open up
our hearts will open and fill with love
And let us in
and we'll finally be let in
Baby I think tonight
tonight's the night, I think it'll be just right
We can take what was wrong
let's fix our past mistakes
And make it right
let's make our love shine bright
Baby it's all I know
my whole heart, my love for you will always show
That you're half of the flesh
we're connected, we're one, don't you guess?
And blood makes me whole
our love, it completes me, it makes me whole
I need you so
I can't live without you, don't you know?

i'm a true fan of Naturally 7 and this is one of their best performances ever

As a seasoned musician ... wow. Those of us who've sung in professional choirs or are virtuosos when it comes to harmony must take our hats off to these amazing artists. Just wow.

I've been into N7 for about 2 years and can't believe how few people are aware of them. They're massively under rated.

If they created their own music instead of just doing covers, I think they would have a much bigger following.
Adam Clouse
thats true they do have a few songs of their own and one of them is Wall Of Sound

Curious as to what 34 people disliked about this! This group is extremely talented. Had the pleasure of seeing them perform a 4 set live performance in Toronto. Incredible. Harmonizing is off the charts.

jr sams, I guess it is the 5 jealous & miserable people who agree with the 34 jealous & miserable people from 5 months ago when you posted. Now there are 39 no taste & no talent jealous & miserable people. Pretty sad.

I saw these guys who were support act to Michael Buble in Nottingham and they totally blew me away. Acapella vocals at it's VERY BEST.
