Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
Turn me loose
From your hands
Let me fly
To distant lands
Over green fields
Trees and mountains
Flowers
And forest fountains
Home along the lanes
Of the skyway
For this dark
And lonely room
Projects a shadow
Cast in gloom
And my eyes are mirrors
Of the world outside
Thinking of the way
That the wind
Can turn the tide
And these shadows
Turn from purple
Into grey
(Refrain)
For just a
Skyline Pigeon
Dreaming of the open
Waiting for the day
When he can spread his wings
And fly away again
(Chorus)
Fly away
Skyline pigeon, fly
Towards the dreams
You've left
So very far behind
Fly away
Skyline pigeon, fly
Towards the dreams
You've left
So very far behind
(Verse 2)
Let me wake up
In the morning
To the smell
Of new mown hay
To laugh and cry
To live and die
In the brightness
Of my day
I wanna hear
The pealing bells
Of distant churches sing
But most of all
Please free me
From this aching
Metal ring
And open out this cage
Towards the sun
(Refrain)
For just a
Skyline Pigeon
Dreaming of the open
Waiting for the day
That he can spread his wings
And fly away again
(Chorus)
Fly away
Skyline pigeon, fly
Towards the dreams
You've left
So very far behind
Fly away
Skyline pigeon, fly
Towards the dreams
You've left
So very
So very far behind
