Where Eagles Fly
Sammy Hagar · Other Songs - Sammy Hagar
I saw fire in the sky
I felt my heart pound in my chest
I heard an eagle cry
Now I'm alive, I can breathe the air
Feel the wind, smell the earth in the air
I watch an eagle rise above the trees
Project myself into what he sees
Hey, take me away
Come on and fly me away
Take me up so high
Where eagles fly
I often dream I sail through the sky
I've always wished I could fly
The simple life of a bird on the wing
Oh Lord, I could sing
Hey, take me away
Come on, fly me away
Lift me up so high
Where eagles fly, oh yeah
I'm alive, I breathe the air
Wash the earth from my face
I catch a glimpse of another dream
I turn, I look there's no trace
Take me away
Come on, fly me away
I wanna fly away, pick me up so high
Where eagles fly, oh yeah
Eagles fly
Oh, take me away
Eagles fly
Oh, take me away
Come on, let's fly away
Where eagles fly
Come on, fly away
Where eagles fly
