White bird In a golden cage On a winter's day In the rain White bird In a golden cage Alone The leaves blow Across the long, black road To the darkened skies In it's rage But the white bird Just sits in her cage Unknown White bird must fly Or she will die White bird Dreams of the aspen trees With their dying leaves Turning gold But the white bird Just sits in her cage Growing old White bird must fly Or she will die White bird must fly Or she will die The sunsets come The sunsets go The clouds roll by And the earth turns old And the young bird's eyes Do always glow She must fly She must fly She must fly White bird In a golden cage On a winter's day In the rain White bird In a golden cage Alone White bird must fly Or she will die White bird must fly Or she will die White bird must fly Or she will die
