The Eagle Song

Go Fish · Out of Breath [1997]

I stood

And watched an eagle glide

Spread his wings

And soared across the sky

So gracefully he flew



Rising effortlessly

I want to know

Just how to be free

(I want to be free)



Tiny fingers

Curled around mine

Perfectly formed

Newborn

The image of two



Infinite mystery

I wanted to know

Where life comes from



What human intellect can sway

Must be explained away

Earth wisdom

Religions of man



Search without interfering

The Spirit housed within

Simplicity of God

Somehow escapes man



I reached

For the eternal

Creation He was waiting

To reveal

His purpose in me



He said,

"This is where life begins

I made your spirit

To glide on the wind"



Come on

Let's fly...

(2x)



On the wind

(3x)
