Morphine 1-2 Lyrics - Mary Gauthier

Rotors spin as she's running for the bell 

She was a fearless pilot with a heart of gold 

I never really knew her all that well 

She had one more flight and she was headed home 

Sprinting hard cause there were lives to save 

He was a young marine with an iron cross tattoo 

A little cocky, righteous, strong and brave 

The co-pilot of morphine one-two 

My head knows but my heart can't see 

It's not like it should have been me 

But I wish that I had been there on that day 

Even now, I'd take their place

Seven souls took off on that flight 

A desert blood drop in the light of day 

A few more seconds could have saved their life 

But the story wasn't gonna end that way 

My head knows but my heart can't see 

It's not like it should have been me 

But I wish that I had been there on that day 

Even now, I'd take their place 

Sever stars shine down on me now 

Lights that burn in everything I do 

Till we meet again someday, somehow 

Semper fi morphine one-two

My head knows but my heart can't see 

It's not like it should have been me 

I still wish that I had been there on that day 

Even now, I'd take their place
