He's just a kid who hid inside a hole His eyes could no more see the story told No longer shivering for fear or cold As birds encouraged him on life to hold
(chorus)
And they said Why, oh why, oh why you don't even try Why, oh why, oh why you don't even try Why, oh why, oh why just one more night Why, oh why, oh why you don't even try
