Skyline Pigeon |
| Turn me loose from your hands |
| Let me fly to distant lands |
| Over green fields, trees and mountains |
| Flowers and forest fountains |
| Home along the lanes of the skyway |
| For this dark and lonely room |
| Projects a shadow cast in gloom |
| And my eyes are mirrors of the world outside |
| Thinking of the way that the wind can turn the tide |
| And these shadows turn from purple into grey |
| For just a Skyline Pigeon |
| Dreaming of the open |
| Waiting for the day |
| He can spread his wings |
| Fly away again |
| Fly away, skyline pigeon, fly |
| Towards the dreams you’ve left so very far behind |
| Fly away, skyline pigeon, fly |
| Towards the dreams you’ve left so very far behind |
| Just let me wake up in the morning to the smell of new mown hay |
| To laugh and cry, to live and die in the brightness of my day |
| I wanna hear the pealing bells of distant churches sing |
| But most of all, please free me from this aching metal ring |
| And open out this cage towards the sun |
| For just a Skyline Pigeon |
| Dreaming of the open |
| Waiting for the day |
| He can spread his wings |
| And fly away again |
| Fly away, skyline pigeon, fly |
| Towards the things you’ve left so very far behind |
| Fly away, skyline pigeon, fly |
| Towards the things you’ve left so very, so very far behind |
