Amelia Lyrics - Blue Lights On The Runway - Bell X1

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 its shadow, the story lost its 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 

It's just like flying 

It's just like flying 

It's just like flying
