What It’s Like To Fly Alone (Hawk Song)

[Verse 1]
A hawk flew from my blindside and took my breath away
The hawk seemed shocked like I was, though the hawk could never say
I bet he's just gettin' started while I'm tuckin' in my day
Still I know what it's like to fly alone

[Verse 2]
I lay at night and wonder if I'll wake up in the mornin'
As much as I resent it, this ol' world’ll keep on turnin'
Will I rise with lifted eyes, or will I lay in darkness yearnin'?
Still I know what it's like to die alone

[Verse 3]
I never meant to let you in and tell you how I feel
I only meant to write it down for me 'cause it was real
But I picked up this guitar, went to a bar, and that’s the deal
Still I know what it's like to cry alone

[Verse 4]
A hawk flew from my blindside and for a moment it was us
I was feelin' winded, he was waitin' a gust
I stayed the course, he cut right into the field, into the dust
Still I know what it's like to fly alone
Hey I know what it's like to fly alone
