Mother Eagle (Sing Me Alive)

When the sisters spoke to me

I didn't have the ears to hear 'em

They were just motioning from up on the rise

When the sisters called to me

The sunlight was between us

I couldn't open my eyes

But there was a whispering, it sounded just like a lover

Every secret seconded by blue butterflies

Then across a broken morn

A deep and azure stillness

Sister, sing me alive

Sing me alive

Guess I'll take another look at my reflection

In the small pool gathering all my love, liquified

Don't be afraid if you don't recognize me

Yeah, if you don't recognize me

I'm like the changing tide

Oh, I don't wanna cry

But I have to

We all gotta go to the other side

It's a dark road

Let the tears roll

Your life is what you make of it

You're a fighter

Mother eagle

Sing me alive

Sing me alive

I rub my sleepy eyes and see you're still beside me

The sound of tiny footsteps running down the hall

A sip of coffee, and I'll leave the dream behind me

But I'm right where they can find me, sisters all

We all gotta go to the other side

It's a dark road

Let the tears roll

To the other side

Oh, your life is what you make of it

You're a fighter

Mother eagle

Sing me alive

Sing me alive

Oh, I don't wanna cry

But I have to

We all gotta go to the other side

It's a dark road

Let the tears roll

Your life is what you make of it

You're a fighter

Mother eagle

Sing me alive
