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 (talk to me now)
Oh, my mother, so you still cry yourself to sleep
Are you still proud of your little boy
Don't be afraid (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 (be afraid), you don't have to hide away, no
Don't be afraid, love will mend your broken wing
Time'll slip away, learn to be brave
Don't be afraid, love will mend your broken wing
Time'll slip away, learn to be brave
Oh, my father, why don't you talk to me now (talk to me now)
Oh, my mother, so you still cry yourself to sleep
Are you still proud of your little boy
Don't be afraid (be afraid), you don't have to hide away, no
Don't be afraid, love will mend your broken wing
Time'll slip away, learn to be brave
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 (talk to me now)
Oh, my mother, so you still cry yourself to sleep
Are you still proud of your little boy
Don't be afraid (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 (be afraid), you don't have to hide away, no
Don't be afraid, love will mend your broken wing
Time'll slip away, learn to be brave
Don't be afraid, love will mend your broken wing
Time'll slip away, learn to be brave
Oh, my father, why don't you talk to me now (talk to me now)
Oh, my mother, so you still cry yourself to sleep
Are you still proud of your little boy
Don't be afraid (be afraid), you don't have to hide away, no
Don't be afraid, love will mend your broken wing
Time'll slip away, learn to be brave
