Bilingual
Songbird in a golden cage, she'd prefer the blue
How I crave the liquor of her song
ย
Poor bird who has done no harm, what harm could she do?
She shall be my prisoner her life long
ย
My songbird wants her freedom
Now don't you think I know
But I can't find it in myself
To let my songbird go
I just can't let her go
ย
Oh Lord, when your jeweler's eye peers into my soul
Oh Lord, I am overcome with shame
ย
Take me Lord and purify, heal me with a word
Lord, I beg a gift I dare not claim
ย
My songbird wants her freedom
Now don't you think I know
But I can't find it in myself
To let my songbird go
I just can't let her go
