White Bird

White bird
In a golden cage
On a winter's day
In the rain
White bird
In a golden cage
Alone

The leaves blow
'Cross the long black road
To the darkened sky
In its rage
But the white bird
Just sits in her cage
Unknown

White bird must fly
She will die

The white bird
Dreams of the aspen tree
With the 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 float by, and the earth turns slow
And a young bird's eyes do always glow

And 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
She will die
White bird must fly
Or she will die
White bird must fly
She will die
White bird must fly
