All original. All lyrics and vocals by me. This is another song from my progressive rock album. Here is the track list so far:
1. ?
2. What the Hawk Sees
3. First Intermission
4. ?
5. ?
6. Fictitious Streams
7. Thoughts Amassing
Hopefully the gaps will be filled in soon. Anyway, I started composing the music for this song a few months ago. After a while, I got the idea for the lyrics. They are inspired by the hawks that can sometimes be seen flying high over the beautiful Arizona deserts. There are less lyrics than "Fictitious Streams" and "Thoughts Amassing", but I hope you enjoy them just as much.
Lyrics:
You spread your wings as the wind sings
Now you take flight, all in your sight
Over the peaks, what do you seek?
Near mountain caves, what do you crave?
See the hawk fly high over the land
So high, where silence rules with a gentle hand
Carelessly you fly so free
What majestic things you surely see
Shadows are cast on places passed
and still ahead more shall be shed
Now right on cue, comes into view
fathomless blue skies just for you
May the wind blow like rivers flow
So well you know deserts below
When you decide higher to glide
above the clouds you shall abide
Thanks for listening! I would love to hear your most honest opinions. By the way, the picture is from google. It is the view from the Superstition Mountains, which are not very far from where I live. There is some kind of mysterious beauty in the desert landscape...
