lyrics and music by Benjamin Newman

listen to this song

/: Am - G - / - - Am - :/
 
Flying high, flying free,
Over Earth, over Sea;
I flee my foe, I fail the test -
I'm flying home to Falcon's Nest.
 
The stars are bright, the night is vast;
By spells of light are shadows cast.
My wings are worn; I need to rest.
I'm flying home to Falcon's Nest.
 
Who am I?  I cannot talk!
Am I a man, or a Sparrowhawk?
Who am I?  You know best.
Safe at home in Falcon's Nest.
 
My shadow came, and I turned tail.
If I flee again, I'm bound to fail.
So as the sun sets in the West,
A hunter flies from Falcon's Nest...
