I know you're inside, beating your wings
First sign, a sunrise, and you gotta sing
But it's a cruel world out there and I care too much
Maybe I'm scared to find out no one can

Love you like I love you
Need you like I need you
And I need you, so

Bluebird, bluebird
I can't let you fly
I know you want
Wanna see the sky
Hate to hold you back
I know I'll have to let you out of my chest
But I'm just not ready yet

I told you that it's for your own good, but maybe I lied
And I know it's not the same only flying at
Midnight sometimes, whiskey in your wings
Don't go too high or too far away

Bluebird, bluebird
I can't let you fly
I know you want
Wanna see the sky
Hate to hold you back
I know I'll have to let you out of my chest
But I'm just not ready yet

No, I'm not ready yet, oh

Bluebird, bluebird
I can't let you fly
I know you want
Wanna see the sky
Hate to hold you back
I know I'll have to let you out of my chest
But I'm just not ready yet

Woah, woah
Oh, I'm not ready yet, oh
