Eagle When She Flies

She's been there, god knows she's been there

She has seen and done it all

She's a woman, she knows how to dish it out or take it all

Her heart's as soft as feathers, still she weathers stormy skies

And she's a sparrow when she's broken

But she's an eagle when she flies

A kaleidoscope of colours, you can toss her round and round

You can keep her in your vision, but you never keep her down

She's a lover, she's a mother, she's a friend and she's a wife

And she's a sparrow when she's broken

But she's an eagle when she flies

Gentle as the sweet magnolia, strong as steel her faith and pride

She's an everlasting shoulder, she's a leading post of life

She hurts deep, and when she weeps, she's just as fragile as a child

And she's a sparrow when she's broken

But she's an eagle when she flies

She's a sparrow when she's broken

But she's an eagle when she flies

Oh, bless her, Lord

She's an eagle when she flies
