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)
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...
