Eagle Song Lyrics - The Staves

I am a cardinal red 

I am of blood and of bones and of heart and of head 

A thousand miles ahead and behind 

Oh to be lost, oh to be wasting my time 

On a hill we lay in the sun 

In the foot of a statue of all battles lost, battles won 

I remember you're voice and you're clothes 

A well chosen passage of words from a book I don't know 

Oh me, oh my, oh man what have I become 

Running around writing letters I'll never send home 

Call me in the morning I'll be alright 

Call me in the morning I'll be alright 

Call me little honey and I'll be fine 

Call me in the morning I'll be okay 

Call me in the morning I'm far away 

Call me little darling and I'll be fine 

An eagle flew above us 

Blankets wrapped around us 

Lucky that she found us 

Rooted to the ground 

The eagle flew above us 

Blankets wrapped around us 

Lucky that she found us 

Rooted to the ground 

No one will believe us 

Mountains as our witness 

Blankets wrapped around us 

The eagle flew above 

By the lake 

So high, so high 

Call me in the morning I'll be alright 

Call me in the morning I'll be alright 

Call me little honey and I'll be fine 

Call me in the morning I'll be okay 

Call me in the morning I'm far away 

Call me little darling and I'll be fine
