We were two lonely travelers
 
 In the sky that night
 
 Two lonely travelers, high flying
 
 Alone in the night on an endless flight
 
 Killing time with polite conversation
 
 Killing time in your shy hesitating way
 
 Killing time, killing my isolation
 
  
  Two lonely travelers breaking ice
 
 By opening up a few old back pages
  
 
 We were two golden eagles in the sky today
 
 Two golden eagles high flying
 
 Who swept through the air
 
 To a secret lair
 
 Flying free slowly wheeling and gliding
 
 Flying free on the sea and the high plateau
 
 Flying free on the breeze without trying
  
 
 Two lonely travelers breaking ice
 
 By opening up a few old back pages
 
 And letting secrets out of their cages
 
 But wanting to remain perfect strangers
  
 
 'Cos I was on a night flight
 
 Floating above the world
 
 Yes it was the moonlight
 
 Painting the wings in pearl
 
 High above the clouds
 
 High above the world
  
 
 Yes I was on a night flight 
 
 Lost in a different world
 
 I can see the starlight
 
 Silver a gypsy girl
 
 High above the clouds
 
 High above the world
