Can You Fly With The Eagles
copyright Rick Almeida. June 14, 2002
Can you fly with the eagles,
on a cold and windy day?
Will you soar among the Heavens?
Will you be there every way?
There’s no one there to talk to,
And the clouds are all your friends
they give you peace and shelter
in a war without an end.
The enemy’s upon you.
You are fighting for your life.
You love your God and Country,
your children and your wife.
Fire is all around you
and time is standing still.
Life passes in a moment
existence is your will.
You’re leaving all behind you
while moving toward the light.
Looking back you wonder,
is this really right?
Can you see the face of God?
What's He look like?
What's He say?
Did you ask Him how He's doing?
Does He love us - anyway?
And when you were up there flying,
Did you call Him on your own?
Did you know where you were going?
Did you know, you're going home?
Memories last a lifetime
for those who comprehend
what freedom means to living
and maybe someday war will end.
Can you fly with the eagles.
through the peace, through the calm?
You will know no pain or sorrow.
He will always keep you warm.
And when you safely get there
when daytime turns to night.
You know that you can look back
on your very special life.
Can you fly with the eagles?
