Nanci Griffith - The Flyer lyrics
He was a flyer for the Air Force On a plane from San Antonio I was travelling to London He was going off to Buffalo Changing planes in Pittsburgh We got grounded in a storm And, I would give anything To be on that flyer's arm We played cards, mostly blackjack As we sat out on the tarmac We sang songs we knew in Spanish As we both loved songs of language He'd heard me on the radio I'd seen the flyers of San Antone And, I would give anything To have that flyer for my own (chorus) God bless the flyer Who would be flying home tonight Cuz' I would give anything To see that flyer, flyin' tonight He said he'd never married Cuz, his heart was in the clouds And I said I was too clumsy That I broke the wings of the loves I found He shouted out his name to me As I ran to make my flight I would give anything To see that flyer, flyin' tonight One year I watched a war in London In the airport leaving London And I wondered if I'd know him If I saw his wings in motion Did I leave my heart in Pittsburgh... In the lightning of that flight? I wish that you could tell me now Will he be flyin' home Btonight? (repeat chorus twice |
