This song appears on five albums, and was first released on the flower that shattered the stone album. it has also appeared on the stonehaven sunrise, a portrait and the john denver collection -Me home, country roads albums. a live version also appears on the wildlife concert album.Horses are creatures who worship the earthAs they gallop on feet of ivoryConstrained by the wonder of dying and birthThe horses still run, they are freeMy body is merely the shell of my soulBut the flesh must be given it's dueLike a pony that carries it's rider back homeLike an old friend that's tried and been trueI had a vision of eagles and horsesHigh on a ridge in a race with the windGoing higher and higher and faster and fasterOn eagles and horses I'm flying againEagles inhabit the heavenly heightsThey know neither limit nor boundThey're the guardian angels of darkness and lightThey see all and hear every soundMy spirit will never be broken or caughtFor the soul is a free-flowing thingLike an eagle that needs neither comfort nor thoughtTo rise up on glorious wingsI had a vision of eagles and horsesHigh on a ridge in a race with the windGoing higher and higher and faster and fasterOn eagles and horses I'm flying againMy body is merely the shell of my soulBut the flesh must be given it's dueLike a pony that carries it's master back homeLike an old that's tried and been trueMy spirit will never be broken or caughtFor the soul is a free-flowing thingLike an eagle that needs neither comfort nor thoughtTo rise up on glorious wingsI had a vision of eagles and horsesHigh on a ridge in a race with the windGoing higher and higher and faster and fasterOn eagles and horses I'm flying againWords and music by john denver and joe henry
