Somewhat experimental in nature, we used a real choir on the chorus of this song. There are two versions of this song... this is the Disney Mix.
The lyrics of this song are a love song written by Nathan to his wife. We both worked very hard to make it a very original sound that would stand out from other songs to impress her. Special thanx go out to Carrie for laying down a couple female vocals for the choir for us.
Eagles and Angels
(Verse 1)
With feet embedded in concrete, I stare at the clouds
and somehow you live in a world so insubstantial
Spread on a table made of glimmers and dreams
Are tea and crumpets shared with eagles and angels.
While grubs and roaches nip at the soles of my feet,
a soaring spirit casts her shadow across my shoulders.
I stand in the cold and grey with snow fall around me.
I keep a worried eye on you, and I wait.
(chorus)
The lines of your face frame the shape of perfection
Flaws are subjective, a point of perspective
And From where I stand,
I see the eloquent glow shine from your eyes
Reflecting moonlight and star beams
Set in a sliver of heaven.
(Verse 2)
We’ve played this dance you and I and I know full well that
you’ll come back to me again.
I’m patient, inspired, jealous, and just a little amazed
As I watch your dance with eagles and angels.
One day I wish that I might break
this rock that anchors me to the sane and the rational.
If I can make this leap then holding your hand
We’ll rise Into the expanse, and we’ll dance.
But for now my eyes open wide, I watch you ascend
To your private playground of eagles and angels.
