Lyrics

Songbird in a golden cage
 She'd prefer the blue
 How I crave the liquor of her song
 Poor bird who has done no harm
 What harm could she do
 She shall be my prisoner her life long
 My songbird wants her freedom
 Now don't you think I know
 But I can't find it in myself
 To let my songbird go
 I just can't let her go
 ♪
 Oh Lord, when Your jeweler's eye
 Peers into my soul
 Oh Lord, I am overcome with shame
 Take me, Lord, and purify
 Heal me with a word
 Oh, I beg a gift I dare not claim
 My songbird wants her freedom
 Now don't you think I know
 But I can't find it in myself
 To let my songbird go
 I just can't let her go
