Julia Fordham - Caged Bird Lyrics
Silly I know, I thought my undying beliefCould hold you up where you belongAmong the coveted and the favouredAnd the shining strongMaybe these arms, although loyal through and throughFaltered for a single momentBeneath the heavy burden of proofAnd the look at me, look at meBut no-one was looking were they?I know why the caged bird sings(And it's not why you're thinking)I know why the caged bird singsSing, sing, sing, singsI think we can be forgiven for knowingWith every golden gift that's givenCome the trials and tribulationsFor the learningI know why the caged bird sings(And it's not why you're thinking)I know why the caged bird singsSing, sing, sing, singsSings like an angelSings for a life (but the living isn't easy)Sings for the freedomSingsI know why the caged bird sings(And it's not why you're thinking)I know why the caged bird singsSing, sing, sing, singsI know why the caged bird sings(And it's not why you're thinking)I know why the caged bird singsSing, sing, sing, sings
