As the Crow Flies

Lyrics for As the Crow Flies

All here is good, still and quiet. A branch, Blossom heavy, Lit by the sun. Flowers in the meadow in full bloom. Midsummer Stars fall, Earthbound. Catching the uplift Taking to the skies Slip the bonds of childhood and home, No glance behind, All is still and quiet. There she goes Into the elds, The turning of the wheels The sound of children's laughter fading with the distance measured out in years. Take ight to the skies with hopes and dreams hopes and dreams. Safe landings, my loves, always. Straight as the crow ies the beat of wings The great escape. Build you some Bridges back to earth, to solid ground. Hope not to fall Or drift away. Take ight to the skies with hopes and dreams hopes and dreams. Good journeys, my loves, straight and true. Take ight to the far skies distant as you dare. Don't let anybody tell you That you're too close to the sun. All here is good, still and quiet.
