"What if I were a feather in Sainte-Marie's hair?
I would've travelled the highways
seen the mountains and the hills
I would've travelled a long way
I would've missed my home
'I'm coming back on a blue day
I'm coming back some day'
Would have I seen
the oldest tree?
The hunger and grief of children in the street?
Or an eagle fly on a mountain high?
I'd've seen love and life and love and life and love
What if I were a feather in Sainte-Marie's hair?
I would've walked through the canyons
I would've felt the rain
I would've danced in the moonlight
I would've changed the world
"I'm coming back on a blue day
coming back some day
Would have I seen
the oldest tree?
The hunger and grief of children in the street?
Or an eagle fly on a mountain high?
I'd've seen love and life and love and life and love"
