New York Tower

(앨범: Still Unwinding - 1978)

Fly me away, on a day like today
Spirits are high and love is free

New York tower, this is Gulf Alfa 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 air, 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 louder, I'm reading you four, 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, teasing 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
