If I was a Bird
Free from a cage
I'd fly to your window
Each and every day
I'd sing you a song
As the sun came up
The melody is simple
But I mean it enough
Oh these bars bring me down
You're close enough but you're locked out
Maybe someday
Maybe someday
Maybe someday
You can fly away, away with me
If I had a dime
Left to my name
I'd play your song
We could dance the night away
You served me a drink
With a smile on your face
But you've got a lover
And he's waiting at your place
Oh this bar brings me down
You're close enough but never around
Maybe someday
Maybe someday
Maybe someday
You can fly away, away with me
