Captured Angel

Found your heart and lost your lover
Lick your wounds and run for cover
Take your time, there'll be another
And don't make the same mistake twice
Unless you can pay the price

All the years that you spent in growing
End up one more line you're towing
Don't look now, but your age is showing
And it's much too late to turn back
You better pull in the slack

Captured angel aching to make your break
Your freedom's at stake, you better fly now
Fly now, fly now, while your wings are still young
Your cage door's been flung, wide open
And I'm hoping you see that there's a place beside me
If you ever need it

Sold your dreams for sweet salvation
Left with righteous indignation
Now it seems that you face starvation
And nourishment doesn't come cheap
You better go back to sleep
