High Flying Bird

[00:14.78] You wore a little cross of gold around your neck
[00:22.53] I saw it as you flew between my reason
[00:29.68] Like a raven in the night time when you left
[00:36.95] I wear a chain upon my wrist that bears no name
[00:44.26]
[00:46.63] You touched it and you wore it
[00:52.37] And you kept it in your pillow all the same
[00:57.97] My high-flying bird has flown from out my arms
[01:05.75] I thought myself her keeper
[01:09.46] She thought I meant her harm
[01:13.16] She thought I was the archer
[01:17.05] A weather man of words
[01:20.76] But I could never shoot down
[01:28.02] My high-flying bird
[01:33.41]
[01:36.79] The white walls of your dressing room are stained in scarlet red
[01:45.33] You bled upon the cold stone like a young man
[01:52.31]
[01:54.35] In the foreign field of death
[02:00.74] Wouldn't it be wonderful is all I heard you say
[02:07.78] You never closed your eyes at night and learned to love daylight
[02:15.33]
[02:17.43] Instead you moved away
[02:21.12] My high-flying bird has flown from out my arms
[02:29.14] I thought myself her keeper
[02:32.70] She thought I meant her harm
[02:36.58] She thought I was the archer
[02:40.47] A weather man of words
[02:44.12] But I could never shoot down
[02:51.33] My high-flying bird has flown from out my arms
[02:59.32] I thought myself her keeper
[03:03.01] She thought I meant her harm
[03:06.79] She thought I was the archer
[03:10.71] A weather man of words
[03:14.43] But I could never shoot down
[03:21.67] My high-flying bird
[03:27.15]
[03:31.25] My high-flying, high-flying bird
[03:38.72] My high-flying, high-flying bird
[03:46.12] My high-flying, high-flying bird
[03:53.68] My high-flying, high-flying bird
[04:12.16]
