Eagle Song
Benny Andersson, Bjoern K Ulvaeus, Bjorn Ulvaeus
I stood and watched an eagle fly
Spread his wings and soared across the sky
So gracefully he flew, rising effortlessly
I wanted to know just how to be free
Tiny fingers curled around mine
Perfectly formed newborn
The image of two, infinite mystery
I wanted to know where life comes from
What human intellect can't sway
Must be explained away, earth, wisdom
Religions of men search without end to find
The spirit housed within
Simplicity of God somehow escapes man
I reached for the Eternal One
Creation, He was waiting to reveal
His purpose in me
He said, "This is where life begins
I made your spirit to glide on the wind"
Come, let's fly on the wind
Come on, let's fly on the wind
On the wind on the wind
On the wind
