Fly me away, on a day like today
Spirits are high and love is free
New York tower this is Gulf - Alia - Kilo
Victor - One, how do you read
New York tower am I cleared to make a flight into the sun
On the summer breeze
And though I’ve heard those engines roar
Over and over before
Oh the sound is sweet to me as a baby on my knee
New York tower please confirm my flight
Departure time - nine zero three
I’ve opened up power and it won’t be
Long before I’ve made the line
I’m waiting to see precipitation keep it’s word
Blue skies preferred
Sun beating down warming the taking me there
Fly me away, on a day like today
Spirits are high and love is free
Take me home I’ve been away too long
Silver bird, please carry me
New York tower I’m holding here
Don’t make me wait too long
Depending on you, could you talk a bit loud
I’m reading you for your transmission ain’t too strong
You gotta come through
Cause when I’m rolling down the track
There ain’t no turning back
Climbing away feeling like a bird
Who’s answering the word
Fly me away, on a day like today
Spirits are high and love is free
Take me home I’ve been away too long
Silver bird, please carry me
Fly me away, on a day like today
Spirits are high and love is free
Take me home I’ve been away too long
Silver bird, please carry me
