Lyrics

I wish I was an eagle feather
I wish I was an eagle feather
I’d fly away forever
I’d fly away and never,
I’d never ask direction
I’d never seek perfection
And all the winds that blow me
Would act as if they know me
They’d know my quest for freedom
Was not the only reason I fly away

I wake up and I lie there
And in my mind I’m scared of what I’ll find there
What lies in wait for me.

So I get up and I stray out
And all the while I’m searching for the way out
A way that I can see

I wish I was an eagle feather
I wish I was an eagle feather
I’d fly away forever
I’d fly away and never,
I’d never ask direction
I’d never seek perfection
And all the winds that blow me
Would act as if they know me
They’d know my quest for freedom
Was not the only reason I fly away

Through the black nights and the dark days
I stumble through this life
Until we part ways
And part of me moves on

It’s not my fault
So don’t blame me
There’s enough of that from me
Enough to shame me
But I’m trying to hold on

I wish I was an eagle feather
I wish I was an eagle feather
I’d fly away forever
I’d fly away and never,
I’d never ask direction
I’d never seek perfection
And all the winds that blow me
Would act as if they know me
They’d know my quest for freedom
Was not the only reason I fly away

I wish I was an eagle feather
I wish I was an eagle feather
I wish I was an eagle feather
I wish, I’d fly
