I thought I saw our Eagle cry (By Milt Gregory)

I thought I saw our Eagle cry
I was not sure of the reason why
I saw a tear drop from her eye
I thought I saw our Eagle cry

I wondered if it is because we fail
I know America is a little bit frail
I then saw that eagle sail
I knew it was not because we fail

I know it was not a tear at all
I saw from the Eagle’s eye fall
I now understand the Eagle’s call
I know it was not a tear at all

I feel strong as she looked back at me
I think no tears but sweat I see
I felt her strength in what must be
I feel strong as she looked back at me

I saw the strength in that Eagle’s eye
I know that we must not let her die
I stand with you and you with I
I saw the strength in that Eagle’s eye

I thought I saw our Eagle cry
I was wrong and now I know why
I am protected by that Eagle’s eye
I know that Eagle will never cry
