Letra de Me and the Eagle
The eagle looked down on the river below And he wrapped his wings 'round him, and he fell like a stone And the big Salmon fought, but the talons held true He shuddered as the world turned from silver to blueI stood there in awe, though I'd seen it before I was born in these easy mountains, and I'll die here for sure And I've traveled around, I've seen city lights But nothin' that shined like the big sky at nightSome mornings will find me up above the timberline Lonesome don't seem like much once you're this high And when it's all said and done, I usually find Me and the eagle are of the same mindNow when I was young, I took me a wife Oh, but she never took to the high country life So now I'm alone, I don't really mind But her name echoes down from the canyon sometimesSome mornings will find me up above the timberline Lonesome don't seem like much once you're this high But when it's all said and done, I usually find That me and the eagle are of the same mindIn dreams there's a horse, he stands 18 hands high He's as white as the snow and there's fire in his eyes And he'll bare only me, though others have tried And together we'll travel up across the divideSome mornings will find us up above the timberline Lonesome don't seem like much once you're this high But when it's all said and done, I usually find That me and the eagle are of the same mindMe and the eagle are of the same mind
