Charlotte Gainsbourg - Songbird in a Cage lyrics

Flying through the sky All our senses reeling Now you sit and cry At the shadows on the ceiling Songbird in a cage Wings that never flutter Once I saw a bird Pecking in the gutter Flying through the sky All our senses reeling Now you sit and cry At the shadows on the ceiling Songbird in a cage Someone that takes pity Opens up the door Fly above the city Someone still may come Someone who takes pity And through an open door You may fly above the city Songbird in a cage Stars will still be shining Through the bars of steel Picture how ti was Flying through the sky All our senses reeling Now you sit and cry At the shadows on the ceiling Flying through the sky All our senses reeling Now you sit and cry At the shadows on the ceiling
