Yesterday the odds were stacked
In favor of my expectations
Lying above the rest,
Never falling from the nest.

Tuesday came and went
And now I'm in a little situation
Maybe it's for the best,
I can live alone I guess.

Maybe I can stand alone
Maybe I'm strong as stone
Even though the bird has flown
Maybe he'll fly on home.

Forgive me if I'm keeping you apart
From better conversation
I'm numb from all my doubt,
Trying to sort the whole thing out.

Tell me that I'm smart enough
To deal with all the information
Spinning inside my head,
Every word he ever said.

Maybe I can stand alone
Maybe I'm strong as stone
Even though the bird has flown
Maybe he'll fly on home.

Maybe I can stand alone
Maybe I'm strong as stone
Even though the bird has flown
Maybe he'll fly on home.

Maybe I can stand alone
Maybe I'm strong as stone
Even though the bird has flown
Maybe he'll fly on home...
