Wings of the Dawn
Intro: D G : Verse and Chorus: D G Em A
Verse 1
I flew between the buildings with pigeons today
I sat on sunny windowsills and cooed the skies of grey
Saw everybody people watching, learning how to play
And wondered who would I be watching on my final day
so I flew above the library and i sat on all the books
I soaked up all the knowledge that a wise man ever could
I spread my wings and let the sunlight filter through my feathers
Then took into the air but I stayed clear below the heavens
I settled on the clock tower and listened to it chime
But timing to a pigeon is a painting to the blind
left my post and headed to the museum corridors
left my mark on history, it dribbled down the walls
Chorus
Then I rose up on the wings or the dawn
And settled on the far side of the sea
But still your hand was there, waiting for me
Intro D G D G
Verse 2
I flew above the pyramids, I flew above the Nile
I rested at the colosseum but only for a while then
Headed north but Santa Claus was nowhere to be found
I waved goodbye to polar bears and kept on going round then
The sunlight in the Caribbean warmed me to the bone
I could fly these skies forever but I knew I must go home
Chorus
Bridge
21 years, will I see 22
21 years I was given by you
21 years is a long time for a pigeon
I consider myself lucky though I still have my religion
There’s a shell on the beach and it shows you the answer
Cos I know where you’ve been and I lay where you lie
But shells on the beach are as vast as the cancer
The word in the blankets that is buried alive
Chorus
So I rose up on the wings or the dawn
And settled on the far side of the sea
But still your hand was there,
still your hand was there
still your hand was there
waiting for me
Verse 3
As I flew above your lead you looked up from below
You said I’m a man today but I’m a bird tomorrow
