Emmylou Harris My Songbird歌词


Songbird in a golden cage
She'd prefer the blue
How I crave the liquor of her song

My Songbird
Harris Emmylou

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

O lord, when your jeweler's eye
Peers into my soul
O lord, I am overcome with shame

Take me lord and purify
Heal me with a word
Lord, 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

END
