Lyrics
Yeah, yeah
As the sun breaks above the ground an old man stands on the hill
As the ground warms to the first rays of light, a birdsong shatters the still
His eyes are ablaze
See the madman in his gaze
Fly on your way like an eagle
Fly as high as the sun
On your way, like an eagle
Fly, touch the sun, yeah
Now the crowd breaks and a young boy appears, looks the old man in the eye
Spreads his wings and shouts at the crowd, "In the name of God my father, I fly!"
His eyes seem so glazed
As he flies on the wings of a dream
Now he knows his father betrayed
Now his wings turn to ashes to ashes his grave
Fly on your way like an eagle
Fly as high as the sun
On your way, like an eagle
Fly, touch the sun
Yeah
Fly on your way like an eagle
Fly as high as the sun
On your way, like an eagle
Fly as high as the sun
On your way, like an eagle
Fly, touch the sun
On your way, like an eagle
Fly
Fly as high as the sun
Yeah!
