ELTON JOHN lyrics : "Skyline Pigeon"

Turn me loose from your hands
Let me fly to distant lands
Over green fields, trees and mountains

Flowers and forest fountains
Home along the lanes of the skyway


For this dark and lonely room
Projects a shadow cast in gloom
And my eyes are mirrors

Of the world outside
Thinking of the way
That the wind can turn the tide

And these shadows turn
From purple into grey


For just a Skyline Pigeon
Dreaming of the open
Waiting for the day

He can spread his wings
And fly away again
Fly away skyline pigeon fly

Towards the dreams
You've left so very far behind


Just let me wake up in the morning
To the smell of new mown hay
To laugh and cry, to live and die

In the brightness of my day

I want to hear the pealing bells

Of distant churches sing
But most of all please free me
From this aching metal ring

And open out this cage towards the sun
