gliding bird

harris, emmylou

gliding bird gliding through the sky

i'm wondering why i can't be why i can't be as free

gliding bird gliding all day long

sing your secret song away from all these faces that i see

is where i want to be

my feet are so tired

they walked too many miles

if i run so wild like heaven's child

i'll learn to fly someday

gliding bird riding in the sun

rainbow colors run

i hear the wind

i hear its mournful call

gliding bird high above the sea

is it longing to be free

your voice is silent

but your wings tell all
