I originally wrote what is now “Eagle” in 1982 when I was 15, and there's been a few versions over the years, including a simple jazz-lounge torch song version, just close, dry vocals and a nylon stringed guitar, more like Billy Holiday.

I love writing for strings, and hope one day to hear a real orchestra playing these feelings. The words are about strength, independence, and not settling for less than what feels true.

Lyrics

Imagine I'm a willow tree
That bows its head down low,
My weeping leaves
Are weeping thoughts
That only a fool could know.

And should I stand alone too long,
Just like I did before,
I'll cast my memories into the river deep,
One day to reach your shore.

Imagine I'm an eagle
That glides upon the breeze,
Without a love or care in the world,
I wander where I please.

But if I've landed inside your heart,
And turned the night to day,
Then greet me with your loving arms
And make me want to stay.
Or I shall fly away again,
Searching for someone
To share the care and tenderness,
Till all the loving's done.
