Teddy McGowan - Sunshine In a Cage

Good morning sun
The day has begun
I'll lift the shade off of your cage
And then you'll shine for the rest of the day
But you don't know
Just how brightly your spirit glows
And when you sing your little song
Well the house starts singing right along
So Sunny let me say I love you
Let me sit with you when it gets dark
You're the clearest light that I ever knew
And you lived just like a piece of art
'Cause sunshine in a cage
Oh how you've watched these brothers change
As you sang the days away
Oh sunshine in a cage
You're freer now than yesterday
So spread your wings and fly away
Shine your rays over the waves
You're living on in these sunny days
It's getting late and I'm finally home
No one is awake and you're sitting alone
I feel so bad that I might cry
But you're so tired
So I just say goodnight
I don't want to say bye
So yeah I guess I'll just say goodnight
I didn't want to see you die
But I guess that's just what makes this life
So I hope that I will meet you again
My sweet little lighthearted friend
So I can tell you what you meant to me
And how your sunny little life made me so happy
Cause sunshine in a cage
It's hard to shine when you're locked away
But you still light up the place
Oh sunshine in a cage
you're freer now than yesterday
So spread your wings and fly away
Shine your rays over the waves
You're living on in these sunny days
