The Eagle & The Dove Songtext
von Jessie Buckley & Bernard Butler

Love rules the day
Faith unfolds the night
Lust leads the way
In the shadow of our lives
Daughter of desire
Dower of light and fire
Forces rule our lives
Feelings move the tide

The strong will bind
The weak left behind
Spring turns to fall
The matador and the bull
Shadow fades to lust
The eagle and the dove


Bull falls away
Matador weaves the stage
Lust takes it toll
Wild beast takes control
Sons of desire
Tempеring the fire
Dance of dеath and life
In each of us the giant

Poppies in the sand
Love played its hand
Feelings left you blind
The weak left behind
Spring will turn to fall
The matador will kill the bull
And shadows fall to dust
The eagle and the dove
