Elton John - Skyline Pigeon (Piano Version / Remastered)(2017)

[00:12.98] Turn me loose from your hands
[00:20.36] Let me fly to distant lands
[00:27.75] Over green fields, trees and mountains
[00:35.63] Flowers and forest fountains
[00:43.24] Home along the lanes of the skyway
[00:49.50] For this dark and lonely room
[00:55.88] Projects a shadow cast in gloom
[01:02.94] And my eyes are mirrors of the world outside
[01:10.79] Thinking of the ways that the wind can turn the tide
[01:18.13] And these shadows turn from purple into grey
[01:24.88] For just a Skyline Pigeon
[01:27.61] Dreaming of the open
[01:29.66] Waiting for the day
[01:32.05] That he can spread his wings
[01:34.96] And fly away again
[01:39.42] Fly away, skyline pigeon, fly
[01:46.65] Towards the dreams you left so very far behind
[01:53.93] Fly away, skyline pigeon, fly
[02:01.12] Towards the dreams you left so very far behind
[02:08.74] Let me wake up in the morning to the smell of new mown hay
[02:15.70] To laugh and cry, to live and die in the brightness of my day
[02:23.10] I want to hear the pealing bells of distant churches sing
[02:30.21] But most of all please free me from this aching metal ring
[02:38.63] And open out this cage towards the sun
[02:44.63] For just a Skyline Pigeon
[02:47.69] Dreaming of the open
[02:49.58] Waiting for the day
[02:52.17] That he can spread his wings
[02:54.75] And fly away again
[02:59.00] Fly away, skyline pigeon, fly
[03:06.63] Towards the dreams you left so very far behind
[03:14.04] Fly away, skyline pigeon, fly
[03:21.16] Towards the dreams you left so very, so very far behind
[03:33.33]
