Alamo

I don't have the strength to go fight for the Alamo
And lose my soul in the works
Half a mind ain't good enough, and lately my times are tough
But I'll sleep way down in the dirt

Hollow and wondering why I'm still floundering
Too soon to know if I'm sane
Sittin' here considering the stretch of my traveling
Thinkin' about leaving again

A bird doesn't own the song she sings
Whether right or wrong she sings
Just like the lonely wind whispering
But she can fly on borrowed wings

No one to call, but I just picked up the phone
Thinkin' about someone I loved
But those days are gone from me, the better days of you and me
I just don't seem to be strong enough

A bird doesn't own the song she sings
Whether right or wrong she sings
Just like the lonely wind whispering
But she can fly on borrowed wings

Honey, I think of you as the girl who always had a tune
But it hurts my heart when you sing
Straining not to feel the words, and the sorrow that isn't heard
Is the pain of your broken wings

A bird doesn't own the song she sings
Whether right or wrong she sings
Just like the lonely wind whispering
But she can fly on borrowed wings
She can fly on borrowed wings
She can fly
