The song "Broken Wings" by Mr. Mister is a reflective and soulful song about a relationship in which two people have grown apart and are trying to figure out how to save the relationship. The singer is asking the other person to take these "broken wings" and learn to fly again, to learn to live so freely and love fiercely so that the book of love will open for them and let them in. He is making a plea for the two of them to come back together, to start anew so that the relationship can be salvaged. The message of the song is that love can overcome anything, that even broken wings can be healed and used to fly again, and that even the strongest of relationships can be mended with patience, understanding, and forgiveness.
