I'd say life's a different story when you're facing certain death |
|
I wonder did they kick back when they knew the game was up |
|
Static on the radio ain't no soundtrack to this end |
|
Stick on a bit of |
|
Wagner and we'll go down, let's see if we skim |
|
Maybe there's no time for grand exits and pause |
|
Twistin' of propellers, choppin' at the froth |
|
And as she turned to |
|
Fred she saw the fear in his eyes |
|
And whatever was between them was heavy in the last word he said |
|
AmeliaOr maybe they went on to grow oranges and pears |
|
On their own island |
|
Amelia and |
|
FredShe'd dance for him in the evenin's, as the red sun fell |
|
He'd sit there smilin' up at her thinkin' this is just swell |
|
Take me now |
|
Some say she resurfaced as a |
|
Tokyo Rose |
|
Talkin' on the radio, tellin' sweeter lies |
|
But remember when the farmer asked have you flown far |
|
She just smiled back at him and said |
|
I've come from |
|
AmericaAmelia |
|
Time has cast its shadow, the story lost its legs |
|
Our favorite missin' person still rears her head |
|
Not on a milk carton just some bones on a beach |
|
That just might be a tall white girl called |
|
AmeliaOh, |
|
AmeliaJust might be a tall white girl called |
|
AmeliaOh, |
|
AmeliaIt's just like flyin', just like flyin' |
|
It's just like flyin', just like flyin' |
|
It's just like flyin' |
