Alex J Longo - Robin Lyrics

Even fools seem smart when they are quiet
Sometimes the best response is no response at all
There is a lesson in everything
You will have bad times but they wake you up
To what you weren't paying attention to
Keep alive the things that make you feel alive
You're only given a little spark of madness
You mustn't lose it but make it thrive
The saddest people try their hardest
They try their hardest to not make you feel left out
Because everyone has a story
Has a story we know nothing about

Oh Robin
Make us smile again
Oh Robin
Will you wake up
And tell us where you've been
Oh Robin
Let's go and make amends
Robin come on back
And make us laugh again

You will change the world
No matter what people tell you
Words and ideas show us skies of blue
This is your world
Shape it or someone else will
At times it's hard
Hard to swallow that pill
What doesn't make you stronger
Has the chance to kill
Lord take away the pain
Take my free will

Oh Robin
Make us smile again
Oh Robin
Will you wake up
And tell us where you've been
Oh Robin
Let's go and make amends
Robin come on back
And make us laugh again

Oh Captain
My Captain
Why can't you turn your sail
And chase down that white whale
But the darkness it stayed longer
And abducted you grabbed you by your tail
It wasn't you
But all of us who failed

Oh Robin
Make us smile again
Oh Robin
Will you wake up
And tell us where you've been
Oh Robin
Let's go and make amends
Robin come on back
And make us laugh again
