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 it 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

Flying through the sky
All our senses reeling
Now you sit and cry
At the shadows on the ceiling
