Phoenix Songtext
von Blair Dunlop

Some say they′ve seen her flying overhead
But they've never found her nest
Keeping her young, warm and fed
In her shadow, you′ll be blessed

I've heard them say that somewhere along the line
Never by her design
The embers turned to ashes

She's up there, colours burning red and golden
I′ve seen her rise
Do you see all of the pain that she′s enduring?
I can see it in her eyes

Apollo came down to listen at the well
Couldn't resist her song
Left his chariot by the road where she fell
When he got there, she was gone


If gods are taking notes
They′re at each other's throats
But she′s seen this before
She's seen this before

She′s up there, colours burning red and golden
I've seen her rise
Do you see all of the pain that she's enduring?
I can see it in her eyes

She flies over field and fen
The year turns round again
Seldom a change in the weather
Apollo admires
How they stoop to fire
You′d think that she′d know better

She's up there, colours burning red and golden
I′ve seen her rise
Do you see all of the pain that she's enduring?
I can see it in her eyes
