Don't tell you don't know Which way the wind blows Don't tell me you're ok That look in your eyes will give you a way Don't tell me you're all right Cause i saw you clinch your hands while sleeping at night Don't tell me that you're given up the fight I wanna hear you sing About the heart that's been torn into pieces by pain Sing About the sun that shines through the hardest of rains Sing, sing Birds got to sing birds got to fly We got to ask ourselves why why why And birds got to fly birds got to land We got to tell ourselves sometimes we'll understand And we'll sing Don't tell me you don't know Where to turn which way we should go Don't give me no excuse That ain't no good darling that ain't no use Don't say fear is in your way I know we're afraid but we'll do it anyway Don't tell me that there's something in your way I wanna hear you sing About the heart that's been torn into pieces by pain Sing About the sun that shines through the hardest of rains Sing, sing Sing that song, sing it loud if you like Or you can whisper it soft in my ear through the night Sing that song that you hide in your chest Let it fly like a bird that is leaving its nest Sing, sing
