Jag hade tänkt att min vän och kollega 91an skulle sätta melodi till en parafras på Eagles fina 6/8-delslåt "Take it to the limit"och delta i  Eagles-omröstningen. Samma upplägg som originalet, men med ny text och melodi. Vi  har dock kommit fram till att det är alldeles för svårt. Är det någon som vill försöka är det fritt fram.

EAGLES EYES View on "Take it to the Limit"

I have spent all my life on the highways
never thought I would ever stop to roam.
But the memories of a girl in my young days
Kör: Made me turn home.

You know I´be always been a drifter
Kör: Just like a rolling stone.
So I just had to go
Kör: Leaving her all alone

But the memories I thought would cease
Keep on haunting me
Kör: And daunting me.
Kör: Not leaving me in peace.

Refräng:
So I´m back on the highway
in search of that girl
and this time - if I find her
I will stay.

I have spent all my time chasing money
lost it all to the very last dime
with some luck I´ll be able to find her
Kör: But would she be mine?

If you look for total freedom
Kör: Not needing anyone.
Then you can´t be tied down
Kör: And still be on the run.

But when you come to your roads end
and you´re looking back
Kör: Your lonely track
Kör: you know you lack a friend.

Refräng:'So I´m back on the highway...
