Night Flyer Songtext / Lyric

The window is open - so why don't you fly?

Could it be you have lost all the yearning to try?

Your cage is a prison - they've kept you so long

But wings are for flying - the throat's for a song



So fly like an eagle and land like a dove

Go find all the places you must have dreamed of

Fly away with your troubles and drop them somewhere

And if you're only dreaming I don't really care.






They won't even miss you - or ask where you've been

They'll feed you and listen for a song now and then

Fly over the mountain and come back to me

And tell in your song what it's like to be free



So fly like an eagle and land like a dove

Go find all the places you must have dreamed of

Fly away with your troubles and drop them somewhere

And if you're only dreaming I don't really care



God gave us the places to labor and strive

But if living ain't nothing but staying alive

Then give me the dying if that's what you found

Don't sing on my grave or drop flowers on the ground



So fly like and eagle and land like a dove

I'll find all the places that I have dreamed of

Fly away with my troubles and drop them somewhere

And if I'm only dreaming I don't really care.
