From the recording Two Wings To Fly
Lyrics
Watchin’ the news again
Everone ‘s yelling,
no ones listening.
My neighbor’s red,
I’m all blue
But we help each other
when we have to
‘Cause that’s just what
It takes to get by
When the fence needs
Fixing on both sides.
We’ve already learned
The difference between
a fight and a war.
Hope both sides still remember
Lessons learned before
Time we all started searching
For some common ground
Can we still find that path
A second time around?
Same dust’s underneath our feet,
Same air we have to breathe,
Same mouths we have to feed
Same truths, same lies, same dreams.
But there’s a bird up there
Still flying’ high
For miles and miles across
This great divide
Doesn’t need to choose
a side to survive.
Just two sharp eyes
And two strong wings to fly.
An Eagle needs
Two wings to fly
Can’t soar on only
one side of the sky.
Gotta try to hold on tight
To what we’re leaving behind
Find the crossroads
Before we run out of time.
Yes, there’s a bird up there
Still flying’ high
For miles and miles across
This big, blue sky
Doesn’t need to choose
a side to survive.
Just two sharp eyes
And two strong wings to fly.
Just two sharp eyes
And able wings to fly.
