They came flying from far away,
Now I'm under their spell
I love hearing the stories that they tell
They've seen places beyond my land
And they've found new horizons
They speak strangely but I understand.
And I dream I'm an eagle
And I dream I can spread my wings
Flying high, high, I'm a bird in the sky
I'm an eagle that rides on the breeze.
High, high, what a feeling to fly
Over mountains and forests and seas
And to go anywhere that I please.
As all good friends we talk all night,
And we fly wing to wing
I have questions and they know everything
There's no limit to what I feel,
We climb higher and higher
Am I dreaming or is it all real?
Is it true I'm an eagle?
Is it true I can spread my wings?
Flying high, high, I'm a bird in the sky
(I'm an eagle)
I'm an eagle that rides on the breeze.
High, high, what a feeling to fly
(What a feeling)
Over mountains and forests and seas
And to go anywhere that I please
And I dream I'm an eagle
And I dream I can spread my wings
Flying high, high, I'm a bird in the sky
(I'm an eagle)
I'm an eagle that rides on the breeze
High, high, what a feeling to fly
(What a feeling)
Over mountains and forests and seas
Flying high, high, I'm a bird in the sky
(I'm an eagle)
I'm an eagle that rides on the breeze
High, high, what a feeling to fly
(What a feeling)
Over mountains and forests and seas
And to go anywhere that I please
(Benny Andersson, Bjorn Ulvaeus, Guy Allison)
When you first found love,
Was it all that you had wanted
For a thousand lonely years
Was the memory so sweet
Now your scented touch brings me
Back to the enchanted
All shadows fade away,
The gypsy is complete
Eagle is walking beside me
Eagle is waiting till I say yes I do
Eagle is living inside me
Giving me all that I need and I need you
Eagle to cry on my shoulder
I just want to stay here forever
From the secret pool,
Did I stare at your reflection
Let the water wash away all the battle
From my soul
For the bride of spring,
Do I swear to your protection
Today will be the day that never shall
Grow old
Eagle is walking beside me
Eagle is waiting till I say yes I do
Eagle is living inside me
Giving me all that I need and I need you
Eagle to cry on my shoulder
I just want to stay here forever
Silence broken and the blackbird is free
Only your voice can I hear, speak to me
Eagle is walking beside me
Eagle is waiting and I say yes I do
Eagle to cry on my shoulder
I want you to stay here forever
Eagle is walking beside me
Eagle is waiting and I say yes I do
Eagle to cry on my shoulder
I want you to stay here forever
