One Day You Will Fly Too

I get up early And I comb my hair And I brush my teeth And I talk to the little white birdie On my windowsill Every time he speaks He helps to cure my worry Oh how I wish He didn't always have to fly away I sit down And he bats his wing And he nods his head Says recently I've found That I think too much about things I've said Will I ever find my ground If I can barely even make it through the day And he says just think of the sunshine When you're stuck in the storm When you're cold in december Just try to remember how it feels to be warm This world's confusing Just take it as it comes I hope you haven't forgotten I've one thing in common with you 'Cause one day you will fly too I stay up too late When there's no more light And the house gets quiet And I think about my day And I play some chords And I write some words that I didn't get to say I think I've come to understand I underestimate the power of my silly little fears I'm not grateful for all that I have until it disappears My heart isn't sturdy but I'll be okay 'Cause I still have my birdie who tells me to think of the sunshine When you're stuck in the storm When you're cold in december Just try to remember how it feels to be warm This world's confusing Just take it as it comes I hope you haven't forgotten I've one thing in common With you He said that he had wings when he was born and he didn't know why Said he'd walk among the flowers and he'd look up at the sky Said that he didn't think he was like the birds that were up high Didn't think that he could fly So he didn't even try Until he started questioning the things he saw as true Then his worries started lessening and next thing that he knew He was flying No denying There's often big things hidden in the little things we do One day you will fly too
