eagle

far away in the mountains, there's a bird flying by
happily singing in the sky
taking all the time of being free
it flies over the rainbows where nothing goes wrong
where it can always sing its songs
it makes me proud to say the bird is me

but farther up in the sky
there's an eagle gliding by
it spreads its wings and sings the sweetest melodies
it can fly through the rain
through the midst of everything
nobody should ever know it hurts me secretly

i turn around and see there's a place where i belong
where i will never be alone
where, from time to time, i rise and fall
smile to the rivers, say "hi" to the trees
dreaming away with the breeze
believing i'm not far from standing tall

but when the eagle comes along
i feel lost and so alone
it makes me feel so low, it blocks me from the sun
but it can't take me to the place
where the storm is at its strongest
'cause i don't wanna be the lonely one

so i strive hard to fly higher than i can
be one of the best in the land
breathing joy while i'm still alive
stronger and stronger i get everyday
never letting nothing get on my way
now i'm like the eagle soaring high

all of my life
i've been waiting for the time
i would find the courage to win this battle
and when the sky turns to gray
and night encloses day
would i still be a bird trying hard to catch up with the eagle?
