Nightbirds Lyrics

Well the stars are out tonight

But I'm down here in the street

They say"Dream while you can son

While the night is still very young""Oh you can be a part of everything man

There's no reason why you can't

Oh you can lay beside a heavenly child

Anytime of night that you like"

They say"Beat your own drum

But we'll catch you if you run"

So I just keep my head down

Try to make a pretty sound

Oh baby

What can you do?

You know the truth ain't beautiful

Oh babe

We got nothing to lose

They say"We ain't got no more time"

But it won't take me very long

So dream your pretty dreams

And I'll keep 'em with mine

I wanna know if things are alright with you man?

I don't know if they're alright with me?

You know the eye of god is watching us now

As we're burning through the streets

Oh baby

What can you do?

You know I can't save you

You pray but what good does it do?

She said"I won't wait, I can't sit around and wait for you"

She cries"It's too late man what am I supposed to do?

You take baby take what I can't give to you"

She cries"I might bend but I won't break for you"

And there ain't nothing else for me

I can feel it in my bones

So set your dreams free

Send 'em right back up home

They say that"Time waits for no man"

And"Good things come to those who wait"

But I see the stars in the gutter, man

And the light there at the gate

I hope you know you are the greatest thing man

That ever happened in my life

I got a feeling deep inside my heart man

Everything's gonna be alright

Alright, alright, alright

Yeah right, yeah right, yeah right
