Eagle - The Cat Empire

Hold your breath and watch the eagle go

My darling lives forever and ever amen

I want to do something right

I want to get something started

Hyenas come at night

I light my candelabra

You said that the Dalai Lama said

Euphoria clean and dry

Euphoria clear as vodka

It’s like some spitting cobra

That follows me wherever I go

You said that the Dalai Lama said

Hold your breath and watch the eagle go

My darling lives forever and ever amen

We stay in bed sometimes

And watch that Kurosawa

Until the light magnesia

Makes it way to my window

I love you and I’ll never let you go

Hyenas come at night

I walk through darkened and

No matter what the season

Somehow I never feel the cold

I love you and I’ll never let you go

Hold your breath and watch the eagle go

My darling lives forever and ever amen…
