I hear the wind call my name
The sound that leads me home again
It sparks up the fire - a flame that still burns
To you I'll always return

But where you are is home
Wherever you stay-I'll find the way
I'll run like the river-I'll follow the sun
I'll fly like an eagle
To where I belong

I can't stand the distance
I can't dream alone
I can't wait to see you-yes I'm on my way home

My every road leads to you
And in the hour of darkness,
Your light gets me through

Yeah
You fly like an eagle-yeah you are the one

Oh, it's to you, I will always, always, return — Bryan Adams
