Double-headed Eagle

Darrell Scott

We had a fight
And I walked the street for hours
When I returned she was sleeping on the floor

So I entered her dream
As a double-headed eagle
One head said to the other one
Oh, I need something more

I need open skies
Where the sun is always rising
To see the my shadow on the mountain
And know that you're not there

A double-headed eagle
Has got one set of wings
Two eyes to heaven
And two eyes that cling to all earthly things

Oh love don't cry
We will meet each week for dinner
We will talk about the children
And the new friends we have found

Then she woke up
I said "Babe you were only dreaming"
Then we made love like love would never come again
