If they try to clip your wings
Fly away, far away
I know why the caged bird sings
I'll await my next escape to meet with you again
Only to meet with you again
My shadow's here to meet with me again

Ask my heart
If there's a place to be alone
Someone tell my head
There's a place to be alone by myself
Do these restless eyes
Tell you I have found a home for myself

If in tears you should awake
In Memory's arms
Withdraw embrace
Silent pools are gathering
Be still my dear, my shadow's here to meet with me again
Only to meet with me again
My shadow's here to meet with me again
