Cutting Crew › Lyrics › One for the Mockingbird

I have learnt through all my past mistakes
Not to let the hurdles sap my energy
Time will tell and time is all it takes
You won't see the b******* knock the running out of me

And the band, they played one more song
One for the mocking bird, they played one more song
All the tears, they fell one by one
All for the mockingbird, they fell one by one

Don't be fooled by those who feed you words
They just twist and tighten up the tourniquet
But the sweetest song of all the mockingbirds
Couldn't hope to match one note of any song we played

And the band, they played one more song
One for the mocking bird, they played one more song
All the dreams, they broke one by one
All for the mockingbird, they broke one by one

What are you hiding from?
Why do you lock the door?
Open up the door

And the band, they played one more song
One for the mocking bird, they played one more song
All the dreams, they broke one by one
All for the mockingbird, they broke one by one

I have learnt, time will tell
Years will pass, tears will fall
Don't be fooled, fed by words
Their sweet songs, mockingbirds
