elton john - high flying bird lyrics
you wore a little cross
of gold around your neck
i saw it as you flew between my reason
like a raven in the night time when you left
i wear a chain upon my wrist
that bears no name
you touched it and you wore it
and you kept it in your pillow all the same
my high-flying bird
has flown from out my arms
i thought myself her keeper
she thought i meant her harm
she thought i was the archer
a weatherman of words
but i could never shoot down
my, my high-flying bird
the white walls of your dressing room
are stained in scarlet red
you bled upon the cold stone
like a young man
hmm, in the foreign field of death
oh, wouldn’t it be wonderful?
is all i heard you say
you never closed your eyes at night
and learned to love daylight
instead you moved away
my high-flying bird
has flown from out my arms
i thought myself her keeper
she thought i meant her harm
she thought i was the archer
a weatherman of words
but i could never shoot down
my
my high-flying bird
has flown from out my arms
i thought myself her keeper
she thought i meant her harm
she thought i was the archer
a weatherman of words
but i could never shoot down
my, my high-flying bird
my high-flying, high-flying bird
my high-flying, high-flying bird
my high-flying, high-flying bird
my high-flying, high-flying bird
