Leave him as a boy

His laugh divides the day in two

Let him dream of birds

I wish I was more like him

Instead I'm shaking in the sun

He came in a wave

His wings were full of songs

White and unafraid

I wish I had known him then

I wish I was more like him

Anyway

Love to see you there

Outside that place

Someday

And secure I hope to see you there

Outside yourself someday

Anyway I hope I see us there

Outside that place someday

And secure I'd love to see us there

Outside ourselves someday
