Kate Price - The Lady And The Eagle lyrics

Sitting on the mountain side She a wounded eagle spied And took it home and made it well And together they did dwell Tears like rain from angels fell I care for you, (she said) with all my life Were you a man, I'd be your wife Or had I wings to carry me We could fly down to the sea But I will never set you free And so she kept his wings confined She'd love him till the end of time But a winged beast, locked in a cage Cannot long control his rage His power not to be a**ured It came to pa** beneath a summers sky She knew she'd have to let him fly Away from her, her love would soar Into the clouds, down to the shore She would see him, nevermore And so it was he flew away Into the glory of the day With pounding heart and beating wings Into the heavens he did sing For freedom's such a precious thing With magic at the break of day He changed his from and with her lay (Saying) with your love, you healed me Then with love you set me free In my heart I'll carry thee
