[verse] I was alone and abandoned early on Didn't know where from and when and why and where to The eagle appeared late to show me the way Very late in the years with loud flapping wings He drove away my friends who had come To accompany me and lead me out of the silence And out of time into the now [drums] [chorus] I was alone and abandoned early on Didn't know where from and when and why and where to The eagle appeared late to show me the way Very late in the years with loud flapping wings He drove away my friends who had come To accompany me and lead me out of the silence And out of time into the now [drums] The friends are gone The silence now surrounds me far out and Time stands devoutly at my door [chorus] Alone and abandoned forever The friends are gone The silence surrounds me now far away and Time stands reverently at my door [chorus] Alone and abandoned forever
