Barclay James Harvest - Jonathan Lyrics






Circles in the sky
White as paper fly
Sound of seagulls crying fills the air
High above the lonely one is there
Jonathan he cares
To feel better

Like the passing wind
Swooping down again
Waitin' for the sun to turn to night
Find him miles away in endless flight
Longing to be free
Telling you and me

Give me wings to fly
Tell me why, tell me why
The answer must be heard
And from a lonely bird
He's giving us a reason to believe

See the painted silver sunlight on his wing
As he sails upon the wind and slowly skyward
Flying as to music you can hear him sing
Like the windsong on the breeze he seems to sigh

Give me wings to fly
Tell me why, tell me why
The answer must be heard
And from a lonely bird
He's showing us the way we can be free

    Thanks for posting this. I'm putting all of the tracks from this album up on my FB page today. Most of my FB friends won't have ever heard of BJH so maybe there will be some new fans. One can hope. :D

    TheBlackycat let’s hope so? But the attention span of today is a challenge.

    Great music of a very underestimated band

    I know this song since 1976 or so...I was beginning to buy all albums of BJH...How should I forget my youth...Since then BJH is still my favourite band, even in 2011 :-)
    Thank you for the video which certainly also refers a bit to Jonathan Livingston Seagull (film music) from Neil Diamond 1973.
