skyline pigeon

[00:13.25] Turn me loose from your hands

[00:20.00] Let me fly to distant lands

[00:27.28] Over green fields, trees and mountains

[00:35.76] Flowers and forest fountains

[00:43.02] Home along the lanes of the skyway

[00:50.00] For this dark and lonely room

[00:56.50] Projects a shadow cast in gloom

[01:03.25] And my eyes are mirrors

[01:08.01] Of the world outside

[01:11.75] Thinking of the ways

[01:14.25] That the wind can turn the tide

[01:19.00] And these shadows turn

[01:21.75] From purple into grey

[01:25.76] For just a skyline pigeon

[01:28.76] Dreaming of the open

[01:30.78] Waiting for the day

[01:33.51] That he can spread his wings

[01:36.25] And fly away again

[01:40.50] Fly away, skyline pigeon fly

[01:46.77] Towards the dreams

[01:49.76] You've left so very far behind

[01:54.51] Fly away, skyline pigeon fly

[02:01.50] Towards the dreams

[02:04.26] You've left so very far behind

[02:09.51] Let me wake up in the morning

[02:14.00] To the smell of new mowed hay

[02:17.25] To laugh and cry, to live and die

[02:20.76] In the brightness of my day

[02:24.25] I wanna hear the pealing bells

[02:28.27] Of distant churches sing

[02:31.01] But most of all please free me from

[02:34.76] This aching metal ring

[02:39.26] And open out this cage towards the sun

[02:45.76] For just this skyline pigeon

[02:49.00] Dreaming of the open

[02:51.25] Waiting for the day

[02:54.25] That he can spread his wings

[02:56.25] And fly away again

[03:01.02] Fly away, skyline pigeon fly

[03:07.25] Towards the dreams

[03:10.27] You've left so very far behind

[03:15.26] Fly away, skyline pigeon fly

[03:22.01] Towards the dreams

[03:25.75] You've left so very

[03:28.26] So very far behind
