Caged Bird

Verse 1

Been wondering why I'm feeling blue

Thinking of you and what you said

Lamenting, lost in thought again

Echoes of that day replay in my head

Pre-Chorus

Wondering how wonderful it all could've been

If I had stayed, would we have loved again?

Chorus

It's all my fault, you were right

I never should've left that night

I was a fool, in a rush

My heart had no say; I gave up too much

Now I'm ashamed; I didn't mean to leave

But I left my heart that day, can't believe

It wasn't you, but the truth set you free

Now I'm a caged bird singing the days

I lost my heart and me

Verse 2

I see your face in the morning rain,

Hear your laugh in the midnight train,

I wish I'd stayed, wish I'd known,

You were the place I should've called home.

(same as before)

Pre-Chorus

Wondering how wonderful it all could've been

If I had stayed, would we have loved again?

Chorus

It's all my fault, you were right

I never should've left that night

I was a fool, in a rush

My heart had no say; I gave up too much

Now I'm ashamed; I didn't mean to leave

But I left my heart that day, can't believe

It wasn't you, but the truth set you free

Now I'm a caged bird singing the days

I lost my heart and me

Bridge

If time could turn, if hearts could mend

Would you take me back again?

But I know the past won't change

So I sing through the bars of this pain

Final Chorus

It's all my fault, you were right

I never should've left that night

I was a fool, in a rush

My heart had no say; I gave up too much

Now I'm ashamed; I didn't mean to leave

But I left my heart that day, can't believe

It wasn't you, but the truth set you free

Now I'm a caged bird singing

Of the day I lost my heart and me
