Elliot Under Glass

Elliot, Elliot, under glass
watches the world go by
Outside the window the children play
While Elliot sits alone all day
Elliot, Elliot, under glass
Snowflakes tangled in his hair
He wonders about the world out there
He wonders how it feels
To hug, to love, to touch, to move,
To have a conversation
To make someone laugh,
Then make them smile again
Elliot, Elliot, under glass
Will never fall down and break a bone
Will never break a heart
Never grow old
Never hug, or love, or touch, or move
Or hold a lover’s hand
Have an argument, hear an apology
A heartfelt “I’m sorry”
Elliot, Elliot, under glass
Fell from the dresser with a crash
We were so very sure
That Elliot was no more
But Elliot, Elliot, finally was
Was more than he’d ever been, because
Elliot could feel, Elliot was real
Elliot was real Elliot was free
To hug, to love, to touch, to move
To break and mend some hearts and bones
To have a conversation with
Somebody on the phone
To make them laugh, and make them cry
Argue and then apologize
To make them laugh and
Make them smile again
Elliot, Elliot, under the sky
Elliot, Elliot, wonders why
In this wonderous world outside
So many people never try
To hug, to love, to laugh, to cry
To argue and apologize
To hug, to love, to laugh, and cry
To live before they die
Under the sky...
When Elliot dreams
Elliot flies to me
And when Elliot flies
All of the skies turn blue
Elliot, Elliot, Elliot, Elliot
Under the sky
