Little Boy

It ain't about me this time But you've got to give me some sort of sign I could paint the sky With lightning bolts and crimson dye Little Boy, can't you see Little Boy, I'll set you free Little Boy, haven't you heard? You can fly Like a bird A word escaped your lips A stalactite in your mind If we fail to hear Lord, we've chosen to be blind Little Boy, won't you see Little Boy, I'll let you be Little Boy, haven't you heard? You can fly Like a bird Take a journey up with me Beyond mountains, above the sea Where a dark horizon grows See the curve that no one knows Count the clouds and give them names 'Til there's one that's not the same Lightning strikes and ashes fall We'll stay here 'til we've named them all Little Boy, don't you see Little Boy, just like me Little Boy, you won't be heard When you fly When you fly When you fly Like a bird
