"Alta Mira" lyrics

The Edgar Winter Group Lyrics

"Alta Mira"

Yesterday I said goodbye to all my misery
I floated down the river just to see what I could see
I came upon the ocean and its beauty took me in
A bird's course may take my mind is where I must begin

Alta Mira, set my spirit free
Alta Mira, like the wind that moves the sea
Alta Mira, let it set your spirit free
Alta Mira, we can live in harmony

The sun was like a burnin' flame
That sinks beneath the sea
Beckoning with all its color
Come and follow me
Its flame was my reflection
Though I knew it wasn't real
I had to find out what it was
And how it made you feel

Alta Mira, set my spirit free
Alta Mira, like the wind that moves the sea
Alta Mira, let it set your spirit free
Alta Mira, we can live in harmony

Hey, Alta Mira, la la la...
Set my spirit free...
Like the wind that moves the sea...
