《The Flyer》歌词

[00:00:00] The Flyer - Nanci Griffith (南西·葛瑞芬)

[00:00:06] He was a flyer for the air force

[00:00:09] On a plane from San Antonio

[00:00:12] I was traveling to London

[00:00:14] He was going off to Buffalo

[00:00:18] Changing planes in Pittsburgh

[00:00:21] We got grounded in a storm

[00:00:27] I would give anything

[00:00:32] To be on that flyer's arm

[00:00:49] We played cards mostly blackjack

[00:00:52] As we sat out on the tarmac

[00:00:55] We sang songs we knew in Spanish

[00:00:58] As we both loved songs of language

[00:01:00] He'd heard me on the radio

[00:01:04] I'd seen the flyers on San Antone

[00:01:10] Now I would give anything

[00:01:15] To have that flyer for my own

[00:01:21] God bless the flyer

[00:01:26] Who would be flying home tonight

[00:01:32] Cause I would give anything

[00:01:36] To see that flyer flyin' tonight

[00:01:41] He said he'd never married

[00:01:43] Cuz his heart was in the clouds

[00:01:46] And I said I was too clumsy

[00:01:49] That I broke the wings of the loves I found

[00:01:52] He shouted out his name to me

[00:01:55] As I ran to make my flight

[00:02:01] I would give anything

[00:02:06] To see that flyer flyin' tonight

[00:02:34] One year I watched a war in London

[00:02:37] In the airport leaving London

[00:02:40] And I wondered if I'd know him

[00:02:43] If I saw his wings in motion

[00:02:45] Did I leave my heart in Pittsburgh

[00:02:49] In the lightening of that flight

[00:02:55] I wish that you could tell me now

[00:03:00] Will he be flyin' home tonight

[00:03:06] God bless the flyer

[00:03:11] Who would be flying home tonight

[00:03:17] Cause I would give anything

[00:03:21] To see that flyer flyin' tonight

[00:03:28] God bless the flyer

[00:03:32] Who would be flying home tonight

[00:03:38] Cause I would give anything

[00:03:43] To see that flyer flyin' tonight
