I see a candle flame in the wind
Guttering and flickering
Threatening to go out, threatening to die
A little bird watched through his cage
Bound and tied
And he knows his soul is flickering the same way
Another soul in captivity
Another caged bird
Another candle flame
Flickering in the wind
When will it ever stop?
Here, little bird, your feet are untied
Your cage doors are open
Come on now, take flight
I can see a little spark
As you fly to your freedom
Where you land, I will never know
As I watch from this cage of mine
Bound and tied
I watch you fly so far
I gave you freedom
Knowing what its like to be
Another candle flame
Flickering in the wind
Another candle flame
Flickering in the wind
