White bird in a golden cage
(viii) (vi)
On a winter's day, in the rain
(viii) (vi)
White bird in a golden cage
(vi)-slide-(viii) (vi)-slide-(viii)
Alone.
(vi)-slide-(viii) (vi)-slide-(viii)
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 or 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
(rest)
White bird must fly or she will die
The sunsets come, the sunsets go
The clouds float by, the earth turns slow
And a young bird's eyes do always glow
(vii) (vi)
And she must fly
(vii) (vi)
And she must fly
(vii) (vi)
And 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 or she will die
White bird must fly or she will die
White bird must fly or she will die
White bird must fly.
