On a balcony On a summer night There's a reverie To a quiet life Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh There's a songbird (ooh-ooh) On a mountain of expecting There's a songbird (ooh-ooh) To a crowd so unexpecting There's a songbird (ooh-ooh) With the fear of unaccepting It's depressing That the best I'll ever be is just like this Do they follow me? (ah-ah) All those city lights (ooh-ooh-ooh) Do they call for me In a lover's eyes? (ooh) Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh There's a songbird (ooh-ooh) On a wave of first impressions There's a songbird (ooh-ooh) With a way of learning lessons There's a songbird (ooh-ooh) With a thing for introspection It's depressing That the best I'll ever be is just like this (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
