I Wish I Was a Bird
I wish I was a bird.
I could see the world, fly high above the mountains and the trees and the ocean and the seas.
I wish I was a bird.
Just sail the breeze with my wings so wide gliding to the earth with no worries on my mind.
I wish I was a bird. Please take me out of the cage, let me fly and be free, to be me! not to be molded into you.
I wish I was a bird.
You can hold me, but please be careful I am fragile and scare easily and fly away before I should.
I wish I was a bird.
I am tired of being fragile and little, over the years I have become wise like an owl quick like the Falcon and strong like an eagle, Now try to put me in that cage!.
I wish was a bird.
To be colorful and have everyone hear my voice as I sing beautiful songs I will overcome all the odds against me.
I wish I was a bird.
