Morning at last Every night is a fight 'til your waking Dreams dancing past Through the silence of sleep dawn is breaking I wait and watch until day And I am not like other birds of prey And I am not like other birds of prey When night is long, you are needing me For (at rest or talk?) I am there to see That fear holds no sway Soft is my flight And my eyes kill the lies that attack you Life is my right And in sleep's little bed I'll protect you So hear, lest my presence dismay That I am not like other birds of prey That I am not like other birds of prey When hopes are young and your cares are few Then I soar above keeping truth in you And my name is love
I) Aubade (instrumental) Ii) And I Am Not Like Other Birds of Prey Morning at last Every night is a fight 'til your waking Dreams dancing past Through the silence of sleep dawn is breaking I wait and watch until day And I am not like other birds of prey And I am not like other birds of prey When night is long, you are needing me For (at rest or talk?) I am there to see That fear holds no sway Soft is my flight And my eyes kill the lies that attack you Life is my right And in sleep's little bed I'll protect you So hear, lest my presence dismay That I am not like other birds of prey That I am not like other birds of prey When hopes are young and your cares are few Then I soar above keeping truth in you And my name is love
@@pillar9925 This is ultimately beautiful and at the same time pure simple lyrics about someone who protects you and cares about you when you are defensless for some reason sometimes. (I am not like other) birds of prey, who are stereotypical predatory and fierce creatures, but here it protects you from your fears and lies, because loves you. Extremely beautiful contrast. And lines: So hear: lest my presence dismay I am not like other birds of prey - is very vital thing for me, about some people with which, how I think, I have tensed attitudes, but actually they selflessly care about me. Absolutely perfect. I'm very thankful to one who showed me this album.
I don't understand, this Is the first album and it's fantastic, It sounds exactly like a first artwork, great but not perfect, not easy ti listen. But afther this album Supertramp changed completely their sound, I like other work they made but don't understand how and why they changed completely their soul.
Great bass lines! I guess the overall production lacks a bit of 21st century oomph! but it is still impressive for 1970 and I'm not meaning it as a criticism.
@@ziggystardust1798 I'm not a hateful person, but yeah, that really gets on my nerves - everything is far far far too polished these days. Very, very boring...
>a song from over 50 years ago doesn't sound like songs from the 21st century Who'd have thought? Thanks for the revelation. Good to see that your comment has been disliked to the bottom, have my dislike.
