Songbirds

Sing!
Little bird, cause you’re free 
Darlin’ you’re a vagabond just like me

Sing!
Birdie, cause your soul can’t be
Caged it soars like my own

Sing!
Songbird, cause you’re meant to fly
In the endless sky

Sing!
Soulbird, cause you’re home is in every tree
And your perch in every tower.

Sing!
Bird, cause you’re song it sounds familiar,
Because it is just like mine
