Only Bird Not Singing

The little boy stands
in the corner with his head inside his hands
he thinks we’ll never understand
that what he’s hiddening we can see so plain
and the beautiful girl
she turns her light on and she shines it right on him
I think she see’s herself in him
she’s gonna try to break through

Sometimes your the only bird not singing
near the only river goin nowhere
and these days you try hard to be so happy
but the only time you fly is when you dream

Now what you feel inside
it’s just a moment in the rollin tide
close your eyes you know the next one’s gonna be alright
and you won’t let me down
if you just wanna be alone for awhile
I’ll just wait right here
till you think you gotta smile for me
