[Verse 1]
They came flying from far away
Now I'm under their spell
I love hearing the stories that they tell

[Verse 2]
They've seen places beyond my land
And they've found new horizons
They speak strangely but I understand

[Pre-Chorus]
And I dream I'm an eagle
And I dream I can spread my wings

[Chorus]
Flying high, high
I'm a bird in the sky
I'm an eagle that rides on the breeze
High, high
What a feeling to fly
Over mountains and forests and seas
And to go anywhere that I please

[Verse 3]
As all good friends we talk all night
And we fly wing to wing
I have questions and they know everything

[Verse 4]
There's no limit to what I feel
We climb higher and higher
Am I dreaming or is it all real?

[Pre-Chorus]
Is it true I'm an eagle?
Is it true I can spread my wings?

[Chorus]
Flying high, high
I'm a bird in the sky
I'm an eagle that rides on the breeze
High, high
What a feeling to fly
Over mountains and forests and seas
And to go anywhere that I please

[Interlude]

[Pre-Chorus]
And I dream I'm an eagle
And I dream I can spread my wings

[Chorus]
Flying high, high
I'm a bird in the sky
I'm an eagle that rides on the breeze
High, high
What a feeling to fly
Over mountains and forests and seas
And to go anywhere that I please
Flying high, high
I'm a bird in the sky
I'm an eagle that rides on the breeze
High, high
What a feeling to fly
Over mountains and forests and seas
And to go anywhere that I please

ABBA

ABBA are one of the greatest pop outfits in history. Their blend of lush orchestrations and light, bouncy europop was both unique and commercially appealing, taking much of the world by storm.

The band name is a member-centric acronym – Agnetha Fältskog, Björn Ulvaeus, Benny Andersson, and Anni-Frid Lyngstad.

Their meteoric rise was sparked by their famed Eurovision performance of original song “Waterloo”, which caused them to win the 1974 competition in Sweden.
