Lo Que Fue No Será

From your hands I learned to drink water
I was a sparrow that got trapped in your cage
Even though I cut my wings and the birdseed you gave me
Was so little and yet I loved you.

*My song for you was always complex
Without you, I can't fly in another sky
But you left me alone, confused, and pitied
What other hand offered me the desired fruit.

*chorus*
What once was will not be
Don't come looking for me again
I have nothing to give you
I got tired of your birdseed.
Go fly to another sky
And leave your cage open
Maybe another sparrow will fall
But give it something to drink.

*Let me turn on the light, I don't want anything
If this had been yesterday, I would have taken it
The first time you offered for me to stay here
But without loving you, what would I gain.

*chorus*
