I am an Eagle,
As cold as England,
On a cold winters morning,
Deep lonely July,
I am lonely,
As lonely as the moon on a dark and gloomy night,
I am an Eagle,
I am a bird
I spend my days
My nights, my weeks
Alone crying and sulking,
I have no need for affection,
Because affection fades away,
I have my thoughts,
I am shielded by my walls,
I am an Eagle.
