Skyline Pigeon
Turn me loose from your hands
- 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
- Fly away skyline pigeon fly
- Towards the dreams
- You've left so very far behind
- 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
- 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
- Fly away skyline pigeon fly
- Towards the dreams
- You've left so very so very far behind

Thanks, for the gift.
You’re absolutely FANTASTIC!
I always sing this song before. I'm planning to make a cover of this song too
