lyrics

Caged Bird
© 2012 Moors & McCumber
A Little Bit Marvelous/Somewhere To Go Music, ASCAP

I think I know why the caged bird sings
With no money in your pocket and no diamond rings
Some things haven’t worked out the way we’ve planned
Hmmm, hmmm, hmmm

We came together in the wilderness
In your hand me down cotton dress
Our eyes alight under the August moon
Hmmm, hmmm, hmmm

[Chorus]
Hand in hand, eye to eye, where love is deep, the river is wide
And I will sing, you to sleep, hmmm, hmmm, hmmm

And when you’ve been where no one else has been
And when you’ve seen what no one else has seen
There are no words fit to explain, hmmm, hmmm, hmmm

[Chorus]
Hand in hand, eye to eye, where love is deep, the river is wide
And I will sing, you to sleep, hmmm, hmmm, hmmm

I think I know why the caged bird sings, this life is full of so many things
Some hurt so bad, and some feel so good, hmmm, hmmm, hmmm

[Chorus]
Hand in hand, eye to eye, where love is deep, the river is wide
And I will sing, you to sleep, hmmm, hmmm, hmmm

Moors & McCumber Boulder, Colorado

James Moors and Kort McCumber are Americana musicians who craft beautiful story songs that walk the line between rootsy folk and melodic pop.

The two have been performing and writing together ever since. ... more
