how can we make amends when we said all we said?
i call and you don't pick up
how can i say instead that i hope it's for the best?
i'm sorry for how i up and left this town
how can we push aside all the bad and make it right
now you got me all choked up
i'm sorry for how i up and left this town
please just listen cause i don't ask for much
how can we both pick sides when we know nothing's right?
open up the door that's shut
how can i have my pride and drink away my soul tonight?
sorrow's filling up my cup
i'm sorry for how i up and left this town
please just listen cause i don't ask for much
well some birds aren't meant to be caged
and i just can't see the light of day
so i don't let this ever grow
cause some birds aren't meant to be caged
i'm what you taught me to be
shouldn't that be enough?
it's time that we make amends
let's forget the things we said
you know we were all just stuck
please just listen cause i don't ask for much
please just listen cause i don't ask for much
and some birds are meant to be caged
and some just won't see the light of day
so i don't let this ever grow
cause some birds aren't meant to be caged
please just listen cause i don't ask for much
please just listen cause i don't ask for much
