El Gavilan (The Hawk) Lyrics

Artist: Kris Kristofferson
Album: Repossessed

You gotta make your own rules, child
You gotta break your own chains
The dreams that possess you
Can blossom and bless you
Or run you insane

The moment is yours now
To lay on the line
The past just don't matter
Tomorrow won't mind

Lay down beside me
Show me a sign
Let me feel your spirit
Running with mine

I don't deserve you
I'm just a man
But I swear I'll love you
Just as hard as I can

Storm on the mountain
Stars in the sky
Running for glory
Freedom to fly

Will you remember
Way down the road
Somebody loves you
More Than you know

Just found this one and the song is so beautiful as are all Kris Kristofferson's songs. The words are so deep and so much passion. There is no song writer like him and I love to hear him sing his own songs. The older he gets, the better, if that is possible. Thank you:)
