lyrics

Gilded Cage by Dave Insley

Real love cuts, like a mighty river
Through this land of misery
It’ll find the sea, it’ll spill big water
It will be just like you always want it to be

Someday honey when I find the ocean
I’m gonna jump in and never look back
Blood runs through my veins like a raging torrent
Stop the train, I’m longing for the black

Well I don’t care for the storybook ending
I don’t want to know what the seers see
If I could somehow learn how to surf on the tidal waves of life
Honey that ride would be a luxury

The pump keeps pumping but the wells going dry
Without your water honey we’re gonna die
Squatters rights they aint no rights at all
I try to fill the bucket with the tears I cry

Someday honey when you know yourself
Your gonna wonder if you made a mistake
Real love baby, it’s a sanctuary
Not a jail, or a gilded cage
Not a jail, or a gilded cage
Not a jail, or a gilded cage
