There's an eagle in the eastern sky turning in the wind
Out across the evening resting on the wings.
If I had the wings of an eagle there'd be no holding me -
I'll be free - sailing free.
One day soon I'm gonna run like the wind
One day soon -
Gonna break away from everything
One day soon.
Nothing in the world's gonna pull me back
And nothing's gonna keep me in - gonna run like the wind
And if you should tell me you want to hold me down
Before the glow of morning I'll be gone without a sound.
The more you try to keep me in the less you will succeed
Sailing free, sailing free.
One day soon I'm gonna run like the wind
One day soon
One day soon I'm gonna run like the wind
One day soon
One day soon I'm gonna run like the wind
One day soon
