Lyrics:
What do you do when you're falling?
You've got 30 degrees, and you're stalling out
And it's 24 miles to your beacon
There's a crack in the sky and the warning's out
Don't take that dive again
Push through that band of rain
Five miles out
Just hold your heading true
Got to get your finest out
You're Number 1, anticipating you
Climbing out
Just hold your heading true
Got to get your finest out
You're Number 1, anticipating you
Mayday, mayday, mayday
Calling all stations
This is Golf-Mike-Oscar-Victor-Juliet
IMC CU. NIMB icing
In great difficulty, over
The traffic controller is calling
Victor-Juliet, it's your identity
I have you lost in the violent storm
Communicate on Squawk Emergency
Don't take that dive again
Push through that band of rain
Lost in Static, 18
And the storm is closing in now
Automatic, 18 (Got to push through)
Trapped in living hell
You're a prisoner of the dark sky
The propeller blades are still
And the evil eye of the hurricane
Coming in now for the kill
Our hope's with you
Rider in the blue
Welcome's waiting, we're anticipating
You'll be celebrating when you're down and braking
Climbing out (Climbing, climbing)
Five miles out (Climbing, climbing)
Five miles out
Just hold your heading true
Got to get your finest out
(Climbing, climbing)
Five miles out
Just hold your heading true
Got to get your finest out
(Climbing, climbing)
Climbing out
Just hold your heading true
Got to get your finest out
(Climbing, climbing)
Five miles out
Just hold your heading true
Got to get your finest out
(Climbing, climbing)
Climbing out
Just hold your heading true
Got to get your finest out
(Climbing, climbing)
Climbing out
Just hold your heading true
Got to get your finest out
(Climbing, climbing)
