Then as it was, then again it will be
  An' though the course may change sometimes
  Rivers always reach the sea
  Blind stars of fortune, each have several rays
  On the wings of maybe, down in birds of prey
  Kind of makes me feel sometimes, didn't have to grow
  But as the eagle leaves the nest, it's got so far to go
    Changes fill my time, baby, that's alright with me
  In the midst I think of you, and how it used to be
    Did you ever really need somebody, And really need 'em bad
  Did you ever really want somebody, The best love you ever had
  Do you ever remember me, baby, did it feel so good
  'Cause it was just the first time, And you knew you would
    Through the eyes an' I sparkle, Senses growing keen
  Taste your love along the way, See your feathers preen
  Kind of makes makes me feel sometimes, Didn't have to grow
  We are eagles of one nest, The nest is in our soul
    Vixen in my dreams, with great surprise to me
  Never thought I'd see your face the way it used to be
  Oh darlin', oh darlin'
    I'm never gonna leave you. I never gonna leave
  Holdin' on, ten years gone
  Ten years gone, holdin' on, ten years gone
