[Chorus] On eagles' wings Lay your body to sleep On eagles' wings May you sleep May you sleep [Chorus] On eagles' wings Lay your body to sleep On eagles' wings May you sleep May you sleep I see red, I see red, I see red, I see red Oh, do all a favour, throw out the key She's gone to that place That big wide open space Never again will she grace us With her beautiful face Go to them, go to them, go to them Go to them, go to them, go to them [Instrumental] [Chorus] On eagles' wings Lay your body to sleep On eagles' wings May you sleep May you sleep
