I stood by the window, watchin' the runway
'Til I saw your plane leave the ground
I already missed you
I felt a little lonely
As you disappeared into the clouds
I said a prayer out loud

You're like an angel, like an eagle
I know I have to let you fly
Where the world is just a small thing
When you see it from so high
May you breathe in all the freedom
You'll find dancing in the air
If I could give you anything at all
I'd give you everywhere
Like an angel, like an eagle

You need a big sky
To find your own answers
And only you will know when it's right
With the courage of a dreamer
And the spirit of a wild heart
Drinkin' from the great big cup of life
So beautiful in flight

Like an angel, like an eagle
I know I have to let you fly
Where the world is just a small thing
When you see it from so high
May you breathe in all the freedom
You'll find dancing in the air
If I could give you anything at all
I'd give you everywhere
Like an angel, like an eagle

I'll be right, I'll be here
Waiting where, all you need, all you need

And the world is just a small thing
When you see it from so high
May you breathe in all the freedom
You'll find dancing in the air
If I could give you anything at all
I'd give you everywhere
Like an angel, like an angel
Like an eagle, like an eagle
Like an angel
