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 her 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 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 fly3
