golden eagle - oliver lyrics

Loading...

the old man stopped and thought
well, now i’m 85
and while i’m still alive
i must rectify a few things

i never dreamed way back when i was 21
there’d be so much left undone
and i would never grow wings
should there be a need to delay my certain sunset
will there be a plan for me to try?

i know the only way to fly
i must find a golden eagle
resting somewhere on the ground
and ride him ever westward
never see the sun go down

sometimes the challenge presses hard upon my brow
and i know the time is now
but my wits are stiff and swollen
i pay my dues and limp a rough and rocky climb
as i try to buy some time
before the dark has fallen

i am but a man
can i stop encroaching shadows?
would that i could keep the black away
i have a scheme to save the day

i will find a golden eagle
resting somewhere on the ground
and ride him ever westward
never see the sun go down
and i’ll ride him for circles
a hundred million times
and then if i have finished
all the half-done ch-r-s that i’m now facing
i’ll bring him on home
