golden bird - eric andersen lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
walking along on a path in the mountains
i saw a bird flying way up high
gold were its wings in the sun of the morning
flashing at me as it flew through the sky

[verse 2]
its beauty was such i felt i must have it
chased it all day, nearly into the night
finally angered that i couldn’t catch it
determined that i would stop it in flight

[verse 3]
i found a stone by a mountain stream flowing
rounded and smooth by the water’s fast flow
it felt so warm and alive in my hand
it was an arrow, my arm was the bow

[verse 4]
then a flashing of wings and a cry pierced the air
it fluttered and it fell on the rocks at my feet
weeping i left it, the thing that had fallen
blood stained my hands and tears wet my cheeks

[verse 5]
but later that night as i lay in my bed
i heard the sound of wings in the air
the room became bathed in a warm golden glow
i opened my eyes and a woman stood there

[verse 6]
“didn’t you know when you hurt me so cruelly
“i was your lover, i was your friend?
“you couldn’t stand it that i was so free
“now you will never see me again”
