Lyrics:
I’m waiting for you
Just like you’re waiting for me
I’m willing to learn I’m just waiting to see
You go from crying your heart out 
to skimming a stone
from being alive to living alone


When it gets bright out,
and the birds have come to let you know
When it gets bright out, and you’re hiding under your pillow

Oh I got the feeling,
that I can’t help you right now
Oh I got the fear
and I can’t give you my very best
Oh I got the feeling,
That I can’t help you right now
Oh I got the fear
and I can’t give you my very best

Yesterday was easy, yesterday was nice
You’re gonna let an assumption ruin your day
You go from waiting for something to happen 
either a feast or famine 
don’t raise your hand if you’ve got nothing to say

When it gets bright out,
and the birds have come to let you know

Oh I got the feeling,
that I can’t help you right now
Oh I got the fear
and I can’t give you my very best
Oh I got the feeling,
that I can’t help you right now
Oh I got the fear
and I can’t give you my very best

When it gets bright out,
and the birds have come to let you know
When it gets bright out,
and you’re hiding under your pillow

Oh I got the feeling,
that I can’t help you right now
Oh I got the fear
and I can’t give you my very best
Oh I got the feeling,
that I can’t help you right now

Oh I got the fear
and I can’t give you my very best, my very best
