(Written to have a steady drum beat throughout)
I sat and watched and wondered why
an eagle soared up in the sky ……
The eagle perched high on a tree
I felt that he was watching me
He nodded once and then took flight
and I could feel my heart grow light
For all my pain was washed away
and only love was left to stay
Your spirit was so strong and free
and I feel so glad that you loved me
I smile and think of you each day
as sunlight shines across the bay
I’ll always know that you loved me –
and now I know your spirit’s free
I sat and watched and I knew why ……
an eagle soared high in the sky ……..
