Lyrics:
To laugh and cry, to live and die
Flowers and forest fountains
In the brightness of my day
Fly away skyline pigeon fly
From purple into grey
Let me fly to distant lands
Dreaming of the open
You've left so very far behind
Projects a shadow cast in gloom
That the wind can turn the tide
And open out this cage towards the sun
Waiting for the day
Over green fields, trees and mountains
Turn me loose from your hands
Towards the dreams
Home along the lanes of the skyway
From this aching metal ring
Of distant churches sing
For this dark and lonely room
But most of all please free me
And these shadows turn
To the smell of new mown hay
Of the world outside
For just a Skyline Pigeon
And fly away again
Thinking of the way
He can spread his wings
I want to hear the pealing bells
Just let me wake up in the morning
And my eyes are mirrors
