Amelia |
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 for this end |
Stick on a bit of agner and we’ll go down |
Let see if we skim |
Maybe there’s no time, for grand exits and pause |
Twistin our propellers, dropping 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 |
Amelia |
Or maybe they went on to grow oranges and pears |
On their own island, Amelia and Fred |
She’d dance for him in the evenings as the red sun fell |
He’d sit there smiling up at her thinking this is just swell |
Take me |
Some say she resurfaced as a Tokyo rose |
Talking on the radio, telling sweet lies |
But remember when the farmer asked have you flown far |
She just smiled back at him and said |
'I've come, from America' |
Amelia |
Time has cast it’s shadow, the story lost it’s legs |
Our favorite missing person, still rears her head |
Not on the milk cartons, just some bones on a beach |
That just might be a tall white girl called Amelia |
Just might be a tall white girl called Amelia |
Oh Amelia |
It’s just like flying X4 |
