Garou - The Birds They Put in Cages lyrics

(Esmeralda) Will the birds they put in cages Ever ride upon the wind ? Will the children life outrages Ever learn to love again ? I lived my life like a swallow I arrived here with the springtime All the little streets I'd follow All the gypsy song were mine Where's my friend who rings the church bells ? Where are you my Quasimodo ? They will hang me as the light swells You can break these bars I know (Quasimodo) Esmeralda, have you left me ? Do you hide yourself away ? I have counted every hour I have missed you every day Have you left upon a journey With your handsome, shining soldier With no marriage, taking love free Like the gypsy girl you are ? Have you died out in the small streets With no prayer to get to Heaven ? There's a priest who counts tour heartbeats If he comes near, you must run (Esmeralda) You remember at the street fair (Quasimodo) When they hurt me on the great wheel (Esmeralda) When you begged, I gave you water (Quasimodo) At your feet I had to kneel Quasimodo and Esmeralda On that day our friendship started It will last as long as we live Once together never parted All we have to give we'll give Will the birds they put in cages Ever ride upon the wind ? Will the children life outrages Ever learn to love again ?
