But when it's all said and done, I usually find
But nothing that shined like the big sky at night
But she never took to the high country life
And shuddered as the world turned from silver to blue
Some mornings will find me up above the timberline
So now I'm alone, I don't really mind
Lonesome don't seem like much once you're this high
Lonesome don't seem like much once you're this high
Now when I was young I took me a wife
But her name echoes down from the canyon sometimes
And the big salmon fought but the talons held true
Some mornings will find me up above the timberline
He's as white as the snow and there's fire in his eyes
Lonesome don't seem like much once you're this high
And when it's all said and done, I usually find
In my dreams there's a horse, he stands eighteen hands high
Some mornings will find us up above the timberline
And together we'll travel up across the divide
Oh, when it's all said and done, I usually find
Me and the eagle are of the same mind
I have traveled around, I've seen city lights
And he'll bare only me, though others have tried
I was born in these mountains and I'll die here for sure
I stood there in awe though I'd seen it before
Me and the eagle are of the same mind
That me and the eagle are of the same mind
