As The Eagle Flies - Detail

Hello old friend, won't you tell me of the tales you've written
It's been a long, long time
Are you feeling tired?  Are you feeling tired?
I hear you don't feel the way you used to do in your younger day
But you spread your wings and try
~ as the eagle flies ~

As the eagle flies above our heads, seeming never to come down to rest,
never to land and never to fall, but it's not that way at all.

Hand in hand we've walked the years
Fell in love and felt the tears
Played our games, had our fears,
~ and now it's time to fly ~

Remember when we had just begun?
We swore our friendship would never come undone,
but now we're saying, "goodbye everyone"
~ because now it's time to fly ~

As the eagle flies above our heads, seeming never to come down to rest,
never to land and never to fall, but it's not that way at all.

Hello old friend, just one thought before I go
One last thing that you've got to know
I'll keep your love with me wherever I go
~ now I've really got to fly ~

So lift your eyes toward the skies and look into eternity
It's our destiny, as the eagle flies.
