The Hawk

Well, he always dreamed that he could fly

And feel free just like the hawk

There is magic in the dreams he had

That lead the path that he'd walk

And though he left us years ago

His spirit took to the sky

And through life lessons and stories

His memory will never die

Now, we all do miss him very much

But you know God has a plan

He may of sent him back to Earth

To soar over this land

Might be reincarnation

Or maybe a wish come true

Well, I believe dad came back as a hawk

Watching over me and you

Well, he'll track us along the old dirt road

From the house down to the barn

Just keeping a watchful eye on us

Then he'll follow us all back home

And if I'm feeling down

And I need my father's advice

Well, I know just where to find him

He flies along those western skies

And now, we all do miss him very much

But you know God has a plan

He may of sent him back to Earth

To soar over this land

Might be reincarnation

Or maybe a wish come true

Well, I believe dad came back as a hawk

Watching over me and you

Well, I remember, a few days after he passed

My mom took a walk outside

She said this hawk had followed her everywhere

And never let her out of it's sight

And the strange thing is, that hawks are rare

You don't see 'em much on the ranch

But ever since dad's been gone

Well, there's been one that's sitting up on that branch

And now, we all do miss him very much

But you know God has a plan

He may of sent him back to Earth

To soar over this land

Might be reincarnation

Or maybe a wish come true

Well, I believe dad came back as a hawk

Watching over me and you

Yeah, I believe my dad is that old hawk

And I guess dreams do come true
