White Bird Lyrics
White bird
In a golden cage
On a winter's day
In the rain
White bird
In a golden cage
Alone
The leaves blow
Across the long, black road
To the darkened skies
In it's rage
But the white bird
Just sits in her cage
Unknown
White bird must fly
Or she will die
White bird
Dreams of the aspen trees
With their dying leaves
Turning gold
But the white bird
Just sits in her cage
Growing old
White bird must fly
Or she will die
White bird must fly
Or she will die
The sunsets come
The sunsets go
The clouds roll by
And the earth turns old
And the young bird's eyes
Do always glow
She must fly
She must fly
She must fly
White bird
In a golden cage
On a winter's day
In the rain
White bird
In a golden cage
Alone
White bird must fly
Or she will die
White bird must fly
Or she will die
White bird must fly
Or she will die
In a golden cage
On a winter's day
In the rain
In a golden cage
Alone
Across the long, black road
To the darkened skies
In it's rage
Just sits in her cage
Unknown
Or she will die
Dreams of the aspen trees
With their dying leaves
Turning gold
Just sits in her cage
Growing old
Or she will die
White bird must fly
Or she will die
The sunsets go
The clouds roll by
And the earth turns old
And the young bird's eyes
Do always glow
She must fly
She must fly
In a golden cage
On a winter's day
In the rain
In a golden cage
Alone
Or she will die
White bird must fly
Or she will die
White bird must fly
Or she will die

I get a forever single type of vibe from this song. Someone who can't love or be loved like a priest.
The sunsets come The sunsets go The clouds roll by And the earth turns old
but the bird is always alone in its golden cage. I get the image of an old man or woman in his/her 70's having been single all his/her life. That man/woman now lives alone in a big house. They never found love or never been able to have a lasting relationship.
