Day of the Eagle Lyrics

Cover art for Day of the Eagle lyrics by Robin Trower

to me, there are two possible meanings:

1) a typical break up song where there's been a lot of fighting and he's down on the hope that there's really love in the world; or

2) it's an anti-society song that reprimands society for promoting hate instead of love

either way the eagle represents the bad and vicious and the dove represents the good and loving.
