      As I ride the wind above mountain's peak..
          Or pause to rest at forest creek..
        My eye beholds what yours must seek..
                    I see you....

         To me, the view is focused clear..
       Your world below seems small up here..
         I wonder at your love, your fear..
                    I see you....

         I glide the rainbows in the sky..
          While in a silver bird you fly..
        I hear you laugh....I feel you cry..
                    I see you....
  
       I'm just a bird, not right or wrong..
      You're just a man, not here for long..
        We share a world...We share a song..
                    I see you....


Today is a gift....
That is why they call it
'the Present'!

Sunny1~
Oh, I like this.
The spirit of the eagle soars
and beholds the sight of many a man.

Very majestically spiritual to me.

You have caught me in your web of magic, Sunny1...lovely imagery used in this lyric of life.

Don't care what people say
Just follow your own way
Don't give up and use the chance
To return to innocence.

True, I'm just a man
but I too have eyes to see
grateful to see you
