|
You come upon a bird in a pretty cage |
|
You feel all its sadness, all its rage |
|
A latch to open doors with moving parts |
|
You hold the key but you just walk away |
|
And life is much harder than you thought |
|
Love can't be tamed and it can't be caught |
|
And still it sings a song for your heart |
|
You decide you want its wings, so you cut them off |
|
And still it sings a song for your blackened heart |
|
You decide you want its wings, so you cut them off |
|
And life is so much harder than you thought |
|
Life is so much harder than you thought |
|
Oh, love, don't go away |
|
Oh, love, don't go away |
|
Oh, love, stay in your cage |
|
Please stay in your cage |
|
Stay |
|
You come upon a bird in a pretty cage |
|
This time you will help it to escape |
|
A latch to open doors with moving parts |
|
You turn the key and watch it slip away |
|
And then it sings a song for your secret heart |
|
You still want its wings, but you let it fly off |
|
And life is so much sweeter than you thought |
|
Life is so much sweeter than you thought |
|
Life is so much sweeter than you thought |
|
Life is so much sweeter than you thought |
