Bird Cage

Little bird In a cage You’ve been turning heads around Yeah you played your part You sang along Under their instruction Looking through the bars Staring at the stars Only love can heal the sickness of celebrity One by one and day by day You see the good ones, they fall away See you standing there styling Waiting for the day you should be soaring I know that you said we could never be together You’re too pretty and I'm too clever Good morning heartache And these foolish things Only love can bring the secrets of simplicity Only love can bring the secrets of simplicity Love is the bread Love is the wine Love is the bread Love is the wine It's the soul’s hot coals Love is the bread Love is the wine Love is the soul’s hot coals Why, the caged bird always sings Through the ages for the pleasure of the king? Nailing you down with a thorn in your crown Calling out your name, you slip away I know how you said that we could never be together You’re too pretty and I'm too clever Good morning heartache And these foolish things Only love can bring the secrets of simplicity Only love can bring the secrets of simplicity Love is the bread Love is the wine Love is the bread Love is the wine Love is the soul’s hot coals Only love can bring the secrets of simplicity Only love can bring the secrets of simplicity Love is the bread Love is the wine Love is the bread Love is the wine Love is the soul’s hot coals Love is the bread Love is the wine Love is the soul’s hot coals
