Desire To Fly

There was a parrot loose in a tree
Escaped from his cage and now he's free

Free to soar anywhere in the blue sky
How I've always wished that I too could fly

Envy the parrot and all the birds
For their songs are sweeter than words

Better than any I could ever write
My songs also want to escape into flight

It's a shame that his feathers were furled
And the rainbow he casts on the world

Caged and covered, no wonder he flew
From the ground I dream of his point of view
