One day the boy decided

To let them know the way he felt inside

He could not stand to hide it

His mother she broke down and cried

Oh my father

Why don't you talk to me now

Oh my mother

Do you still cry yourself to sleep

Are you still proud of your little boy

Don't be afraid

You don't have to hide away

The boy he was rejected

By the people that he cared for

It's not what they expected

But he could not keep it secret anymore

Far from home now

Waiting by the telephone

There's a new world

You can make it on your own

Are you still proud of your little boy

Don't be afraid

You don't have to hide away

Don't be afraid

Love will mend your broken wing

Time will slip away

Learn to be brave
