Then as it was, then again it will be
Though the course may change sometimes
Rivers always reach the sea
Like stars of fortune
Each has separate rays
On the wings of maybe
Down in birds of prey
Kind of makes me feel sometimes
I didn't have to grow
But as the eagle leaves the nest
He got so far to go
Changes fill my time
Baby, that's all right with me
In the midst I think of you
And how it used to be
Did you ever really need somebody
And really need 'em bad
Did you ever really want somebody
The best love you ever had
Do you ever remember me, baby
Did it feel so good
'Cause it was just the first time
And you knew you would
Turn the eyes and I sparkle
Senses growing keen
Tasting love along the way
See your feathers preen
