Thunderbird

(album: Reunion - 1977)

Millions of years before a human child
Thousands of condors filled the sky
Sabretooth tigers and mastodons
But now the sabretooth and mastodons are gone
They're all gone

Thunderbird, spread wide your wings
Thunderbird, fly on the wind
Thunderbird, you're a primeval thing
Oh, thunderbird

Millions of years before you and I
Thunderbirds flew through the sky
But now the thousands are almost none
And someday soon the condors may all be gone
May all be gone

Thunderbird, sail through the sky
Thunderbird, from mountains so high
Thunderbird, history passed you by
Oh, thunderbird

We've got to make it this time
Or you know it's the end of the line
We are the last to remain
There may never be, there may never be
A chance again

Two years have come and gone
Now it's time for us to get it on
One chick, one egg, one nest
Come on, come on, and give it your best

And I think we can make it, one more time
No way to fake it, it's yours and mine
It must come from our sweet love
Hey, it's finally down, yes, it's finally down
Just to the two of us
And I think we can make it, one more time
No way to fake it, it's yours and mine
It must come from our sweet love
Hey, it's finally down, yes, it's finally down

Thunderbird, spread wide your wings
Thunderbird, fly on the wind
Thunderbird, you're a primeval thing
Oh, thunderbird

Thunderbird, sail through the sky
Thunderbird, from mountains so high
Thunderbird, history passed you by
Oh, thunderbird
