|
I was an eagle but |
|
I cannot fly, |
|
I was a lion, but |
|
I run no more, |
|
I was a river, but the river's dry, |
|
And soon the spirit is coming to take me home; |
|
I've seen the sunrise in a thousand ways, |
|
I've seen the wonder of a summer storm, |
|
I've seen a mountain that touched the sky, |
|
And soon the spirit is coming to take me home; |
|
Do not cry for me - |
|
I am with the stars, |
|
Do not cry for me - |
|
I am in the wind, |
|
Do not cry for me - |
|
I am with the rain, |
|
And soon the spirit is coming to take me home; |
|
I have my children, |
|
I have seen them grow, |
|
I have a garden that is all the world, |
|
We come with nothing, that's how we'll go, |
|
And soon the spirit is coming to take me home; |
|
Do not cry for me - |
|
I am with the sun, |
|
Do not cry for me - |
|
I am in the wind, |
|
Do not cry for me - |
|
I am with the stars, |
|
And soon the spirit is coming to take me home; |
|
I was an eagle, but |
|
I cannot fly, |
|
And now the spirit has come to take me home. |
