One for the Mockingbird Songtext
von Cutting Crew

I have learned 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

Hear the band, they play one more song
One for the Mockingbird, one more song
All the tears, they fell one by one
All for the Mockingbird, one by one

Now don't be fooled by those who feed you words
Let it twist and tighten up the tourniquet
The sweetest song of all the mockingbirds
Can′t hope to match one note of any song we play


Hear the band, they play one more song
One for the Mockingbird, one more song
All the dreams, they broke one by one
All for the Mockingbird, one by one

Oh, what are you hiding from?
Oh, why do you lock the door?
Open up the door

Hear the band, they play one more song
One for the Mockingbird, one more song
All the tears, they fell one by one
All for the Mockingbird, one by one

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