1
You wore a little cross
2
Of gold around your neck
3
I saw it as you flew between my reason
4
Like a raven in the night time when you left
5
I wear a chain upon my wrist
6
That bears no name
7
You touched it and you wore it
8
And you kept it in your pillow all the same
9
My high-flying bird
10
Has flown from out my arms
11
I thought myself her keeper
12
She thought I meant her harm
13
She thought I was the archer
14
A weatherman of words
15
But I could never shoot down
16
My, my high-flying bird
17
The white walls of your dressing room
18
Are stained in scarlet red
19
You bled upon the cold stone
20
Like a young man
21
Hmm, in the foreign field of death
22
Oh, wouldn't it be wonderful?
23
Is all I heard you say
24
You never closed your eyes at night
25
And learned to love daylight
26
Instead you moved away
27
My high-flying bird
28
Has flown from out my arms
29
I thought myself her keeper
30
She thought I meant her harm
31
She thought I was the archer
32
A weatherman of words
33
But I could never shoot down
34
My
35
My high-flying bird
36
Has flown from out my arms
37
I thought myself her keeper
38
She thought I meant her harm
39
She thought I was the archer
40
A weatherman of words
41
But I could never shoot down
42
My, my high-flying bird
43
My high-flying, high-flying bird
44
My high-flying, high-flying bird
45
My high-flying, high-flying bird
46
My high-flying, high-flying bird
