The Soprano & Midnight Wonderings

Mm

Mm

Ooh

I-I-I, I-I-I

Ooh

I-I-I, I-I-I

3 a.m., wide awake again

And you come to me, though you never leave

Wrapped in lace, paper crown

Wonder of you still, have you found firm ground?

When caged birds get to sing

Does anybody hear them when they do?

When caged birds get to fly

Does anybody ever question why?

Sometimes, when I'm awake at night

I think about it, the story of you

Sometimes, when I'm awake at night

I think about it, the things that we lose

Too soon, too soon

Too soon, mm

I think about the things that we lose too soon

Ooh

I-I-I, I-I-I

4 a.m., so we talk again

Slipped your heart in these hands, broken soul, hallowed land

So long alone, our shadows cast in stone

Every version of you, the ones I'm told, the ones I knew

When caged birds get to sing

Does anybody hear them when they do?

When caged birds get to fly

Does anybody ever question why?

Sometimes, when I'm awake at night

I think about it, the story of you

Sometimes, when I'm awake at night

I think about it, the things that we lose

Too soon, too soon (ooh)

Too soon, like you (I-I-I, I-I-I)

I think about the things that we lose too soon

Ooh

I-I-I, I-I-I

Ooh

I-I-I, I-I-I
