Brian Auger - Flying Free lyrics

When the autumn wind starts singing Blowing at the twilight hour Then I feel the forces flowing through my soul And I know the earth is spinning As I tread the path I've made And I search to find whatever makes me whole 'Cos there's something of the wild in all of us The longing to be free Something of the rain in all of us That's flowing through your heart Something in the wind that's calling us To fly just like a bird ... flying free There's a tree in the forest Living in a secret glade And it's lived a dozen lifetimes more than me And I hope they never find it And cut away its life Let us teach our children just to let it be (Chorus) There's a tiger in the heart of us We struggle to control As we gaze upon its awesome symmetry And the milk of human kindness Is all it needs to live And its quiet power all it wants to give (Chorus)
