Song information

Artist: Neil Young
Album: Year Of The Horse

Lyrics

Danger bird, he flies alone
And he rides the wind
Back to his home
Although his wings
Have turned to stone
And we used
To be so calm
Now I think
About you
All day long
'Cause you've been
With another man
Here you are
And here I am
That's the moment
That he cracked
Long ago in the
Museum with his
Friends
The jailbird takes the raps
And he finds himself
Spread-eagled on the tracks
But the training that he learned
Will get him nowhere fast
And I know we
Should be free
But freedom's just
A prison to me
'Cause I lied
To keep it kind
When I left you
Far behind
With the rain
Pounding on his
Back he recalls
The moment that
He cracked long
Ago in the museum
With his friends
And like those
Memories the rain
Keeps pounding
Down, down, down
And though these wings
Have turned to stone
I can fly fly fly away
Watch me fly above the city
Like a shadow on the sky
Fly, fly, fly
