A letra:
I
have seen where the wolf has slept by the silver stream
I can tell
by the mark he left, you were in his dream
Ah child of countless
trees
Ah child of boundless seas
What you are, and what
you're meant to be
Speaks his name, though you were born to
me
Born to me
Cassidy
Lost now on the country
miles in his Cadillac
I can tell by the way you smile, he is
rolling back
Come wash the nighttime clean
Come grow the
scorched ground green
Blow the horn, and tap
the tambourine
Close the gap of the dark years in between
You
and me
Cassidy
Quick beats in an icy
heart
Catch colt draws a coffin cart
There he goes and now here
she starts
Hear her cry
Flight of the
seabirds
Scattered like lost words
Wield to the storm and fly
Fare thee well now
Let
your life proceed by it's own design
Nothing to tell now
Let
the words be yours, I'm done with mine
Fare thee well now
Let
your life proceed by it's own design
Nothing to tell now
Let
the words be yours, I'm done with mine
Fare thee well now
Let
your life proceed by it's own design
Nothing to tell now
Let
the words be yours, I'm done with mine
I'm done with mine
Flight of the
seabirds
Scattered like lost words
Wield to the storm and fly
