You make me feel like
I can be myself
Sometimes I miss being
Somebody else
You make me feel like
I've come home
Sometimes I miss life
On the road
Standing on the side of the highway
With one job to do
One direction to take
To the next venue
My life on the stage
Was so simple when
I could put my heart away with the props
Now I feel every start and stop
You make me feel like
A bird singing
Sometimes I miss my eggshell
You make me feel like
My ship's come in
Sometimes I miss just waiting
Sitting on the end of the pier
Staring out to sea
Licking my lips in the wind
Telling the birds my dream
I learned everything from the lorikeet
Now let me sit on your shoulder
And in your ear
I'll say all those words you
Taught to me
