DawsonIf you go down round the bend in the riverYou’re gonna find a few changesBeen going down there‘Cause the people who liveRound the bend in the riverHave forgotten their dreamsAnd they’ve cut off their hairchorus:And take a last, flying lookAt the last lonely eagleHe’s soaring the length of the landShed a tear for the fateOf the last lonely eagleFor you know that he never will landIf you go down where the lightsPush the nighttimeBack far enough so you can’t feel the fearRemember the boy who you left on the mountainWho’s sitting alone with the stars and his tearschorus:If you go down to the gas-powered flatlandWhere most of the people just thinkThat they’re freeRemember the peace that you hadOn the mountainCome back to the love that you had here with mechorustag:For you know that he never will land
