LYRICS
Not too long ago I saw you fall You went down amidst smoke and fire I heard someone say they saw you die And in despair I hung my head to cry But as the smoke cleared from the New York sky I saw bloodstained wings begin to rise The eagle still flies, see how he soars His wings may be singed, he's hurting within But he's come through the storm Freedom still rings, look to the sky Even as the tears dim his eyes The eagle still flies Shining bright for all to see A beacon of strength, freedom, and liberty So noble and proud as you fly high and free Unafraid to face the winds of adversity Manmade towers rise and fall But somewhere up there high above it all The eagle still flies, see how he soars His wings may be singed, he's hurting within But he's come through the storm Freedom still rings, look to the sky Even as the tears dim his eyes The eagle still flies Hurting still but it won't be long ‘Til he soars to heights he's never known The eagle still flies, see how he soars His wings may be singed, he's hurting within But he's come through the storm Freedom still rings, look to the sky Even as the tears dim his eyes The eagle still flies
