Night Flyer lyrics

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 and the throat 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

Then 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

Oh, I'll fly like an 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

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