I Was An Eagle歌词

[00:02.60]
[00:09.29]So your grandmother sounds to me
[00:15.23]A woman I would be proud to be
[00:20.42]And you say she reminds you of me
[00:26.23]Every little boy is so naive oh
[00:31.11]
[00:32.04]I will not be a victim of romance
[00:37.48]I will not be a victim of circumstance
[00:41.66]Chance or circumstance or romance or any man
[00:46.79]Who could get his dirty little hands on me
[00:51.66]
[01:04.28]So your grandfather sounds like me
[01:09.41]Head up shoulders back and proud to be
[01:14.72]Every little girl is so naive
[01:20.10]Falling in love with the first man that she sees
[01:23.72]
[01:25.35]I will not be a victim of romance
[01:30.66]I will not be a victim of circumstance
[01:34.91]Chance or circumstance or romance or any man
[01:39.91]Who could get his dirty little hands on me
[01:44.41]
[01:47.10]
[01:56.29]When we were in love if we were
[02:01.60]When we were in love
[02:05.10]I was an eagle
[02:10.16]And you were a dove
[02:11.91]
[02:19.66]Today I will feel something other than regret
[02:25.04]Pass me a glass and a half-smoked cigarette
[02:30.10]I've damn near got no dignity left
[02:35.29]I've damn near got no dignity left oh
[02:39.72]
[02:40.33]
[02:40.89]I will not be a victim of romance
[02:45.95]I will not be a victim of circumstance
[02:50.14]Chance or circumstance or romance or any man
[02:55.14]Who could get his dirty little hands on me
[03:01.27]
[03:11.33]When we were in love if we were
[03:16.27]When we were in love
[03:19.39]I was an eagle
[03:24.52]And you were a dove
[03:26.52]
[03:33.64]When we were in love if we were
[03:38.70]When we were in love
[03:42.14]You were a dove
[03:44.02]And I rose above you and preyed
[03:50.46]
