The Staves - Eagle Song Lyrics
I am a cardinal, redI am of blood and of boneAnd of heart and of headA thousand miles ahead and behindOh, to be lost,Oh, to be wasting my timeOn a hill we lay in the sunAt the foot of a statueOf old battles lost, battles wonI remember your voice and your clothesA well chosen passage of wordsFrom a book I don’t knowOh me, oh my, oh man, what have I become?Running aroundWriting letters I’ll never send homeCall me in the morning I’ll be alrightCall me in the morning I’ll be alrightCall me little honey and I’ll be fineCall me in the morning, I’ll be OKCall me in the morning, I’m far awayCall me little darling and I’ll be fineThe eagle flew above usBlankets wrapped around usLucky that she found usRooted to the groundX2No-one will believe usMountains as our witnessBlankets wrapped around usThe eagle flew aboveBy the lakeSo highSo highCall me in the morning I’ll be alrightCall me in the morning I’ll be alrightCall me little honey and I’ll be fineCall me in the morning, I’ll be OKCall me in the morning, I’m far awayCall me little darling and I’ll be fine
