The Cage
You broke the bread, we drank the wine.
Your lip was bleedin' but it was fine. Come
on inside, babe, across the line. I love you
more than I. But then this bird just flew
away, she was never meant to stay. Oh to
keep her caged would just delay the spring.
You broke your word. Now that's a lie. We
had a deal that you would try. Come on
inside, girl, I think it's time. High time we
drew the line. But then this bird just flew
away. While I looked the other way. Oh
to keep her caged would just delay the
spring. You broke my soul, dear, you stole
the plot, you left an empty shot. There's
nothing left here, 'cos you took the lot. An
empty cage is all I've got. 'Cos when your
bird has flown away, she was never meant
to stay. Oh to keep her caged would just
delay the spring. To keep her caged would
just delay the spring.
