Wild geese flew over my head today
Skirtin’ the heavens on a far-flung highway
So I said a prayer right on the spot
Tied a ribbon and not a knot
Thanked the Lord and blessed the lot
Wild geese flew over my head today
Wild geese flew over my head today
I heard them banter, and I saw them play
Flyin’ in a perfect "V"
The highest form of symetry
Headin’ South, it will soon freeze
Wild geese flew over my head today
Wild geese flew over my head today
But first one must gaze up to see their parade
Oh, the sky for them is a welcomed friend
They know the secrets of the wind
We fly planes, but not like them
Wild geese flew over my head today
Wild geese flew over my head today
They spoke no gossip or words of dismay
And when they cut across the moon
And split the sky like a harpoon
It touched me so that I nearly swooned
Wild geese flew over my head today
And when they cut, across the moon
And split the sky like a harpoon
It touched me so, that I nearly swooned
Wild geese flew over my head today
