Red Wing

In the summer sun 1981
The day was long 'till I heard the song whistle like the wind
I was standing there, dust was flying through the air
Like days before when we believed in things we couldn't see
Oh my Red Wing, take me softly
To my home, now, to my family
Oh my Red Wing, hold me closely
Take me under the brightest sun
When the day is done and another night has come
I'll rest my weary bones and pray the bird I love hasn't flown away
And I will call again up to my kindest friend
The ground below will be set free and with my love I'll be
Oh my Red Wing, take me softly
To my home, now, to my family
Oh my Red Wing, hold me closely
Take me under the brightest sun
Money she has none, she was never one
By metal wings or death machines or anything between
When my time has come, and all my days are done
If heaven waits, we'll breach the gates
On her wings we'll be one
Oh my Red Wing, take me softly
To my home, now, to my family
Oh my Red Wing, hold me closely
Take me under the brightest sun
Oh my Red Wing, take me softly
To my home, now, to my family
Oh my Red Wing, hold me closely
Take me under the setting sun
