They drove me down from the other side of town with a letter from a poison pen
They took away my voice and left me with no choice but I knew I’d come back again
Yes I knew I’d come back again
I slept with the poor in the clothes that I wore in the cold and the pouring rain
And though I nearly died with all hope denied I knew I’d come back again
Yes I knew I’d come back again
You took me high, you took me higher like the wings of an eagle flying in the night
You took me high, you took me higher like the wings of an eagle flying in the night
They told me lies, took the stars out of my eyes then they set me on a path of pain
And though they couldn’t see what they did to me I knew I’d come back again
Yes I knew I’d come back again
They threw me out said they don’t want me about then they dragged me on a length of chain
Though they tried to take my soul I was always whole I knew I’d come back again
Yes I knew I’d come back again
You took me high, you took me higher like the wings of an eagle flying in the night
You took me high, you took me higher like the wings of an eagle flying in the night
They took my life, took my children, took my wife till there wasn’t any more to gain
But like a river to the sea, like a growing tree I knew I’d come back again
Yes I knew I’d come back again
They drove me down from the other side of town with a letter from a poison pen
They took away my voice and left me with no choice but I knew I’d come back again
Yes I knew I’d come back again
