How is it you sing?

How can you jubilate,

Sitting in cages,
Em              H
Never taking wing?
Em
Outside the sky waits,
D#
Beckoning, beckoning,
Em              Em - D - C#
Just beyond the bars.

How can you remain,

Staring at the rain,

How is it you sing?
Am
Whence comes this melody 
H
constantly flowing?
Em              H
Is it rejoicing or merely halloing?

Are you discussing or fussing

Or simply dreaming?

Are you crowing?
C
Are you screaming?

Ringdove and robinet,

and stands transfixed by her beauty)

C
My cage has many rooms,
F
Damask and dark.
C                 A#
Nothing there sings,
Am
Not even my lark.

Larks never will, you know,

When they're captive.

Teach me to be more adaptive.

Green finch and linnet bird,

If I cannot fly,

АNTHONY (Gazing at her, sings softly):

Beheld its wonders,
F
From the pearls of Spain

For all its wonders,
