One For The Mockingbird Lyrics - Broadcast - Cutting Crew

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 bastards 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
