Can you hear a big bird singing,
somewhere in the back of your mind
It's loud enough to make you wonder:
"Can I please hear it one more time?"
Saying I'll never leave you
Just call me and I'm on my way
Somehow I can always see you
And I can feel you in me every day
You say you travel on a winding road
It's long enough to wrap you up
How can you tell if it's real?
The way it touches is sure hard to feel
Too much of nothing can hurt you,
and too little hurt even worse
I wonder if I'll ever get to you,
or if you'll have to get to me first
Into the street of the city,
where we don't have to think so hard
And we don't have to worry, now do we
Just look at the world through a hole in the wall
While on your way to see a troubled friend,
you lose your way and never see her again
I think I know how it feels
The way it touches is sure hard to feel
Too much of nothing can hurt you,
and too little hurt even worse
I wonder if I'll ever get to you,
or if you'll have to get to me first,
first
Into the street of the city,
where we don't have to think so hard
And we don't have to worry, now do we
Just look at the world through a hole in the wall
You look and see a sky is forming,
holding so many rains
It makes you feel real lonely,
and the feeling is like a ball and chain
Down on the street of the city,
where you don't have to think so hard
You don't have to worry, now do you
Just look at the world through a hole in the wall
And you put in the back of your head now,
save it for another time
And when it gets too heavy to carry,
you may always put it down on mine
I promise I'll never leave you
Just call me and I'm on my way
Somehow I can always see you
And I can feel you in me every day
