[length: 03:54]
[00:12.98]Turn me loose from your hands
[00:20.36]Let me fly to distant lands
[00:27.75]Over green fields, trees and mountains
[00:35.63]Flowers and forest fountains
[00:43.24]Home along the lanes of the skyway
[00:49.50]For this dark and lonely room
[00:55.88]Projects a shadow cast in gloom
[01:02.94]And my eyes are mirrors of the world outside
[01:10.79]Thinking of the ways that the wind can turn the tide
[01:18.13]And these shadows turn from purple into grey
[01:24.88]For just a Skyline Pigeon
[01:27.61]Dreaming of the open
[01:29.66]Waiting for the day
[01:32.05]That he can spread his wings
[01:34.96]And fly away again
[01:39.42]Fly away, skyline pigeon, fly
[01:46.65]Towards the dreams you left so very far behind
[01:53.93]Fly away, skyline pigeon, fly
[02:01.12]Towards the dreams you left so very far behind
[02:08.74]Let me wake up in the morning to the smell of new mown hay
[02:15.70]To laugh and cry, to live and die in the brightness of my day
[02:23.10]I want to hear the pealing bells of distant churches sing
[02:30.21]But most of all please free me from this aching metal ring
[02:38.63]And open out this cage towards the sun
[02:44.63]For just a Skyline Pigeon
[02:47.69]Dreaming of the open
[02:49.58]Waiting for the day
[02:52.17]That he can spread his wings
[02:54.75]And fly away again
[02:59.00]Fly away, skyline pigeon, fly
[03:06.63]Towards the dreams you left so very far behind
[03:14.04]Fly away, skyline pigeon, fly
[03:21.16]Towards the dreams you left so very, so very far behind
