Horses are creatures who worship the earth

As they gallop on feet of ivory

Constrained by the wonder of dying and birth

The horses still run, they are free

My body is merely the shell of my soul

But the flesh must be given its due

Like a pony that carries its rider back home

Like an old friend that's tried and been true

I had a vision of eagles and horses

High on a ridge in a race with the wind

Going higher and higher and faster and faster

On eagles and horses i'm flying again

Eagles inhabit the heavenly heights

They know neither limit nor bound

They're the guardian angels of darkness and light

They see all and hear every sound

My spirit will never be broken or caught

For the soul is a free-flowing thing

Like an eagle that needs neither comfort nor thought

To rise up on glorious wings

I had a vision of eagles and horses

High on a ridge in a race with the wind

Going higher and higher and faster and faster

On eagles and horses i'm flying again

My body is merely the shell of my soul

But the flesh must be given its due

Like a pony that carries its master back home

Like an old that's tried and been true

My spirit will never be broken or caught

For the soul is a free-flowing thing

Like an eagle that needs neither comfort nor thought

To rise up on glorious wings

I had a vision of eagles and horses

High on a ridge in a race with the wind

Going higher and higher and faster and faster

On eagles and horses i'm flying again
