Flying Sorcery Lyrics

Flying Sorcery lyrics

With your photographs of Kitty Hawk

 And the bi-planes on your wall

 YOu were always Amy Johnson

 >From the time that you were small.

 No schoolroom kept you grounded

 While your thoughts could get away

 You were taking off in Tiger Moths,

 YOur wings against the brush-strokes of day.

 Are you there?

 On the tarmac with the winter in your hair,

 BY the empty hangar doors you stop and stare,

 Leave the oil-drums behind you, they won't care

 Oh, are you there?

 

 You wrapped me up in a leather coat

 And you took me for a ride

 We were drifting with the tail-wind

 When the runway came in sight

 The clouds came up to gather us

 And the cock-pit turned to white

 When I looked the sky was empty

 I suppose you never saw the landing-lights

 Aare you uthere?

 In your jacket with the grease-stain and tear

 Caught up in the slipstream of dare,

 The compass roads will guide you anywhere,

 Oh, are you there?

 

 The sun comes up on Icarus as the night-birds sail away

 And lights the maps and diagrams

 That Leonardo makes

 YOu can see faith, hope and charity

 As they bank above  the fields

 You can join the flying circus

 You can touch the morning air against your wheels

 Are you there?

 Do you have a thought for me that you can share?

 I Never thought you'd take me unawares,

 Just call me if you need repairs-

 Oh, are you there?
